UAP launches mobile food trucks to provide low-cost food in Orange County

If you’ve been to a grocery store recently, you’ve likely noticed that food prices are soaring.

“Groceries are high. Very, very high. Most of us can’t afford it,” said Rita Bennett, a long-time shopper at United Against Poverty (UAP) Grocery Center.

Bennett, who lives on a fixed income, has relied on UAP for the past 22 years.

“They’re just so reasonable and so cheap, and you get free bread and sweets,” she added.

UAP serves around 650 people daily, offering affordable groceries. However, many low-income families still struggle to access the center or other grocery stores due to transportation challenges.
