Or that more than 23% of the children in our state live in poverty? Or that more than 80% of the students in the Tulsa Public Schools qualify for the free and reduced-cost lunch program? Or that 17% of the residents in Tulsa County are &quot;food insecure&quot; --- meaning, they&#39;re unsure of where they&#39;ll get their next meal? On this installment of StudioTulsa, we hear about a new anti-hunger campaign in our community that kicked off just last month: Live Local, Give Local.

Father Dan is probably best known for creating the Tulsa-area social service agency, Neighbor for Neighbor, which still exists today.
