    Proven in part by a young woman, Nikalie Monroe from Kentucky, who called 43 religious establishments to ask if they could provide assistance to her (hypothetical) newborn baby who needed formula milk etc.

    Only 10 of the 43 offered to help, including a mosque, a Buddhist temple, an African American church, a Hispanic church, and a tiny Appalachian church.

    Johnny Dunbar, the 69-year-old great grandfather and pastor of the last one (Heritage Hope Church of God in Somerset, Kentucky) actually offered to go out and buy the formula himself!

    Initially, Nikalie had tried calling other nonprofits and food banks, but they were out of stock and recommended she call churches etc.
