Were you wondering why nonprofits like the Flatbush Community Fund need to raise more money than ever for Pesach? 

It's because more people than ever have applied for assistance. Hundreds more.

Do you want to know why so many families are struggling? 

The article below provides a pretty good explanation.

The average family is spendy over$1,000 more a month than just three years ago.

"The typical U.S. household needed to pay $227 more a month in March to purchase the same goods and services it did one year ago because of still-high inflation, according to calculations from Moody's Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi shared with FOX Business.

Americans are paying on average $784 more each month compared with the same time two years ago and $1,069 more compared with three years ago, before the inflation crisis began.

"Inflation has not just stalled, but it is moving in the wrong direction," said Lisa Sturtevant, chief economist at Bright MLS.

When compared with January 2021, shortly before the inflation crisis began, prices remain up a stunning 18.94%.

Inflation has created severe financial pressures for most U.S. households, which are forced to pay more for everyday necessities.

The CPI is still running well above the typical pre-pandemic rate, and the cost of necessities like food, rent and child care remains far more expensive than just one year ago.

Food prices, a visceral reminder of inflation for many Americans, ticked up 0.1% over the course of the month. In total, the cost of groceries is up 1.2% from the same time last year and up a stunning 21% when compared with January 2021, shortly before the inflation crisis began.

"This was a painful report with few bright spots for consumers," said Robert Frick, a corporate economist with Navy Federal Credit Union."
