Exploring the implications of rising voluntarism and private charity in the face of diminishing government welfare, Janet Poppendieck critiques the effectiveness of these efforts in combating poverty. Through her firsthand experiences in soup kitchens and gleaning centers, she reveals the struggles of those relying on inadequate meals and questions whether these charitable initiatives inadvertently sustain the very issues they aim to resolve. Hailed as a pivotal examination of hunger, the book challenges the notion that increased charity alone can effectively address systemic poverty.
