We are committed to providing chef-quality meals and educational support to individuals and families in need within our community. We believe that no one should go hungry, and we work every day to create a positive, lasting impact on the lives of those we serve.
Too many hardworking people are forced to choose between keeping the lights on or putting food on the table. We believe that no family should have to make that choice.
That’s why we are cutting through the “red tape” that often stands in the way of help. We focus on serving those who don’t qualify for county assistance, food stamps, or other aid programs—people who cannot afford to miss work to wait in long pantry lines, but who still struggle to make ends meet.
