Look out for these volunteers on LA SWIFT -- they'll be surveying folks who ride transit between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Officials are threatening to cut this service. Make your voice heard and contact your Parish P resident -- let him or her know that LA SWIFT is a vital link between the two cities. It connects people to jobs, family and services. And, it also reduces the amount of cars on the Interstate. Call your Parish President today!

From 2001 through 2009, the number of people age 50 and above struggling with hunger or lacking sufficient nutrition and food resources rose by almost 80 percent. Today, nearly 9 million older Americans are at risk of hunger. Unless we act, that number will only increase as the aging population grows.
