Myth:
Poor people are too lazy to work.
Fact:
Jobs that pay a living wage keep disappearing so poverty and hunger keeps
increasing. A living wage in this region of Ohio means earning over $15 an hour
for a family of three. Low and middle income workers are worse off today than
they were just 12 months ago. Fact is, jobs that pay a living wage are hard to
come by and with the rising cost of fuel and food more and more families who
used to be able to make ends meet now turn to us for help.
