Important to note
Age to participate
All ages are welcome.
Yes! We welcome families and children to be part of the experience. There are many tasks that small hands can help with!
We hold our monthly distribution rain or shine unless we are under a severe weather threat. If we do need to cancel, we will notify all volunteers ahead of time.
On average, we provide food to approximately 350+ households and distribute 50 pounds of food, per family, each month at our food distribution event.
It rarely happens but we distribute any leftover food to local food pantries.
