Bakhaarada Cuntada ee Mobile-ka ee Feeding America West Michigan waa ilo cajiib ah oo loogu talagalay bulshooyinkooda - iyo sidoo kale daqiiqado waxbarid oo awood leh oo loogu talagalay mutadawiciintooda.
Jabinta caqabadaha, waxbaridda bulshada, baabi'inta fikradaha khaldan, iyo sameynta xiriirro waa arrimo aad u dhiirrigeliya Michell Hampton iyo Tiffany Arisineau oo ka tirsan The Greater Marinette-Menominee YMCA. Michell, oo hore u ahaan jirtay isku-duwaha bakhaarka cuntada ee guurguura sannado badan, ayaa barnaamijka u gudbinaysa Tiffany, oo aad u xiisaynaysa inay qaadato tooshka oo ay shaqo u qabato bulshadeeda.
"Waa fursad cusub oo aan ku lug yeesho bulshadayda," ayay tiri Tiffany. "Waxaan arkaa baahiyaha kala duwan ee dadku la kulmaan ee aan ka caawin karno."
Michell waxay sheegtay inay qaddarinayso sida iskaa wax u qabso ee goobaha cuntada ee moobaylka ay u ahayd fursad waxbarasho oo weyn iyada iyo xubnaha kale ee bulshada.
"Had iyo jeer waxaan jeclaa inaan dadka u soo bandhigo waxa aysan baran," ayay tiri. "Waxaan gacan ka geysan karnaa waxbaridda iyo jebinta caqabadaha fikradaha khaldan ee dadka laga yaabo inay diyaar u yihiin inay cunaan. Taasi had iyo jeer waxay ahayd xiiso weyn, iyadoo tan loo adeegsanayo si loo caawiyo waxbaridda dadka kale loona muujiyo inay yihiin dad caadi ah sida dhammaanteen."
Xaqiiqdii, Michell wuxuu ka sheekeeyay dhowr waayo-aragnimo oo mutadawiciin ah ay la yaabeen sida badan ee deriska u raadinayay kheyraadka si ay u ilaaliyaan bakhaarradooda.
"Waxay la mid yihiin, 'Michell, ma rumaysan karo tirada baabuurta. Ma rumaysan karo tirada dadka.' Waa wax indhaha lagu furayo marka aan dadka barno sida ay waxtar u leedahay iyadoo maskaxda lagu hayo inaan garanayn sababta ay safka ugu jiraan. Waxaan leenahay dad badan oo u arka waalidkood waayeelka ah ee aan wadi karin, ama deriska ku jira guryaha la caawiyo oo aan haysan baabuur hadda. Waxaan haynaa dad badan oo yimaada oo caawiya dadka kale ee bulshada, marka ma aha oo keliya naftooda."
Iyada oo ah qof cusub oo ku cusub barnaamijka cuntada ee moobaylka, Tiffany waxay lahayd waayo-aragnimo u gaar ah oo ay ku ogaatay baahida weyn ee ka jirta bulshadeeda.
"Waxaan waqti-dhiman ka shaqeynayay Y muddo siddeed sano ah anigoo sameynaya jimicsi, laakiin weligay si buuxda uma arkin saameynta," ayay tiri. "Waan ogaa in gaariga Feeding America uu halkan joogo. Weligay ma aanan ogaanin inay ahayd baahi intaas la eg ilaa aan shaqsi ahaan u shaqeeyay. Waxaad arkeysaa dadka yimaada bil kasta, mana u maleynayo in dadku ay si aad ah u fahmaan bulshadeena - inta loo baahan yahay."
Tani waa mid ka mid ah sababaha badan ee Michell iyo Tiffany u arkaan fursadaha iskaa wax u qabso sida tan oo kale inay muhiim yihiin.
"Waxaa jira arrin ay dad badan soo bandhigayaan," Michell ayaa tiri. "Waxay hubiyaan inay u dhaqmayaan sidii aan u dhaqmi lahayn. Laakiin marka aad albaabada xiran gasho, noloshu way burburtaa xoogaa sababtoo ah aad bay ugu mashquulsan yihiin nolosha ama shaqada ama qoyska."
Qaybin dhawaan lagu sameeyay The Greater Marinette-Menominee YMCA, 341 qoys oo ka kooban 764 qof ayaa la siiyay. Ku dhawaad 15,000 rodol oo cunto nafaqo leh ah sida karootada la qaboojiyey, baradhada, tufaaxa, farmaajada, liinta, subagga looska, iyo sausage ayaa loo qaybiyey deriska Degmada Menominee.
Markii la weydiiyay sababta ay u aaminsan yihiin in bulshadoodu u baahan tahay kheyraadkan, Michell ayaa ku daray, "Waxaan u maleynayaa inay jiraan arrimo aad uga weyn oo dadka ku haya dhibaatooyin. Buundada looga baxo meelahaas aad bay u adkaan kartaa sababtoo ah kheyraadka iyo aqbalaadda [bulshada] ee dadka raadinaya caawimaad ma aha mid xooggan sida ay ahayd inay noqoto."
Goobaha cuntada ee guurguura waxay u adeegi karaan buundadaas, siyaabo badan oo ka badan hal. Waa kheyraad lagu caawiyo deriska inay bakhaarradooda kaydsadaan xilliyada adag. Waa fursad ay dadka da' kasta leh u helaan wax badan oo ay ku bartaan oo ay xiriir la yeeshaan deriska bulshadooda. Waa fursad dhammaanteen aan u leenahay inaan si weyn u fahamno waxa ay deriska la kulmayaan iyo inaan isku xirno wejiyada, nolosha, sheekooyinka, iyo waayo-aragnimada la xiriirta cunto la'aanta bulshooyinkeenna.
Mahadcelin ayaan u jeedinaynaa Hay'adda Caafimaadka ee Provident oo gacan ka geysatay taageeridda goobaha cuntada ee guurguura sida kuwa ku yaal The Greater Marinette-Menominee YMCA - halkaas oo Michell, Tiffany, iyo kooxahooda mutadawiciinta ah ay wax walba ku bixiyaan adeeggooda joogtada ah.
