On Saturday, November 18th, attorneys David Daggett and Griff Shuler appeared on Triad Today with Eric Aft, CEO of Second Harvest of Northwest North Carolina. They discussed hunger in the Triad and how Second Harvest works to address those issues through a variety of programs. Watch the segment:

Second Harvest of NWNC is an agency that addresses hunger in the community through many outlets, from meal distribution to educational programs. Based in Forsyth County, they serve 18 surrounding counties. Their philosophy is that access to food is a basic right and their programs work to strengthen food security across the state. They have a large partner agency network to distribute food, with over 500 agencies working with them. This translates to feeding approximately 70,000 people per month.

That is a large distribution base, but the need is startling. Demand over the past few years has only increased. From October 2022 to October 2023, 27,000 more people per month have been accessing Second Harvest’s services. There are many causes for this growing need – rising housing costs, general inflation, and access to affordable child care are the biggest drivers of this trend.

You may wonder how Second Harvest manages to help so many people per month. There are many ways that they reach the community, ranging from a mobile pantry that visits local “food deserts” to provide access to fresh, healthy food, to a mobile nutrition unit that distributes produce and provides education about eating healthy and how best to use the produce, to working with local farmers to get the best, freshest food available out to the public.

Daggett Shuler is proud to support Second Harvest and their mission with their annual food drive. A tradition since Daggett Shuler opened for business, the food drive has become an integral part of Daggett Shuler’s mission which focuses on looking out for the community. It’s important for the whole community to work together to take care of those in need, whether that takes the shape of individuals donating food to local drives, or coporate donations. Communities need to look out for the next generation, and ensuring that basic needs are met is an enormous step towards ensuring nutrirional needs are taken care of and provides developmental support for growing children.

At the end of the segment, David Daggett and Griff Shuler were pleased to provide Mr. Aft with a check to help further Second Harvest’s work within the Triad. Their work is inspiring and helps fill a great need for our friends and neighbors.

Later in the episode, David also participated in the Roundtable discussion with Ogi Overman and Keith Grandberry. They talked about current news items and political issues.

Thank You for Everything

I would like to take time to thank the staff at Daggett Shuler Attorneys at Law. To Megan Youngblood for helping me get my disability started; thank you so much for everything!

Outstanding

My experience with Daggett Shuler was amazing. James Cohn was the attorney I worked with for my workers’ compensation claim. He is an awesome attorney. I was injured while on the job performing my duties with a local company, and the next Monday was fired because they did not want to pay my medical bills. After going to Daggett Shuler they looked after me throughout the process. The Daggett Shuler team was outstanding in their professionalism and empathy.

Couldn't Be More Pleased

A wonderful law firm who personally takes care of your issues. Workers’ Comp can be a nightmare in so many ways so it is good to have an exceptional attorney with that experience guiding you through the process. Griff Shuler was my attorney and I couldn’t be more pleased with the way he handled my case.
