Microsoft News is partnering with Swipe Out Hunger as part of our Poverty Next Door project. This series takes a closer look at who is poor in America to reveal that traditional stereotypes and assumptions about who lives in poverty no longer apply in today’s world of unaffordable housing, crippling college debt, climate change and other forms of systematic marginalization. We are proud to support the work of Swipe Out Hunger to address the issue of food insecurity on college campuses. Please join us.
