Charities are running out of food to nourish the ballooning number of Australians who can't afford to eat and are turning away more than 74,000 hungry people every month, a survey has found.
The 875 organisations surveyed by OzHarvest fed more than 350,000 people per month in the year to March 2026, with more than half of respondents in every state and territory reporting higher demand.
