Self-employed people and AOW people report to the food bank: ‘There are also people who own a house and car’

The organization is concerned about the growing group of self-employed people and state pensioners in need. At the same time, the supply of food from supermarkets is decreasing. “We see a lot of shame, but it can happen to anyone.”
