Montgomery County leaders unveil strategic plan to end childhood hunger

7News has learned in Maryland, more than 600,000 residents are hungry and many of them live in Montgomery County. At the Cider Mill Apartments in Gaithersburg residents lined up during what’s known as meat week. Each month families gather to receive a grocery bag full of more than $100 in food. When asked what kind of difference the program is making, Rosibel Romero told 7News, “It’s making a huge difference, especially for all of us.”
