50 million Americans will experience food insecurity and hunger, what can be done to help?

As the US reels from the damage caused by COVID-19, one of the long-term impacts will be on food poverty and food security in the US. A staggering 50 million Americans will experience food insecurity, including 17 million children, a level of hunger not seen in the US since the Great Depression.
