The sole purpose of the Simply Give program is to help our food pantry partners feed the growing number of hungry families in the communities we serve. Our goal is to diligently work to be good stewards of these generous contributions by ensuring they are only used to purchase food items to stock our valued pantry partners shelves.
Food insecurity continues to be on the rise in the communities we serve, which makes our commitment to the cause vital. Thank you for joining us as we work to help end hunger. We couldn’t do this without your support and partnership!
