With rising food insecurity, we see the growing need for food assistance in our growing numbers at the Food Shelf. Currently we are serving around 30 families each time we are open, translating into 60 families a week.
So far this year (through November), we have provided food to 1,240 households, 4,866 people.
Over the past year we have…
- Rescued 125,602 pounds of food from local grocery vendors
- Composted 21,407 pounds to a local farmer
- Distributed 209,000 pounds of food to individuals and families in need of food support
We received donations from this congregation and community partners such as childcares, other churches, local schools, and businesses.
In November, the Food Shelf gave $25 Cub gift cards to purchase a turkey for Thanksgiving, and gave a Thanksgiving food bag that included recipes for making pumpkin pie.
Thank you for supporting our Food Shelf!
