📰 News we're reading

• Operators of small food distribution programs see a greater need for their services (inklink.news) — Littleton’s food pantry is seeing sharply higher demand, with volunteers struggling to keep up as families turn to local programs to fill gaps left by SNAP cuts and the recent federal shutdown. Similar spikes are reported in Meredith, Laconia, and Manchester, where small nonprofits and churches are stretching donations, food, and clothing to meet ongoing need and rising food prices.
