The Board of Directors of Loaves and Fishes have elected to, again, participate in the Feinstein Foundation National Challenge to fight hunger in America. Loaves and Fishes is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the mission of providing a warm noontime meal to the hungry citizens of our community. We have two paid employees, the Executive Director/Treasurer and Dishwasher. We have a modest budget and need your help to meet our need.
Last year, Loaves and Fishes provided 55,052 meals to individuals at the kitchen. There were 9,686 people that food was requested for, through the food distribution program, from area agencies over the past year.
Your donations, with the Feinstein Foundation’s, have benefited our kitchen greatly. Therefore, we are asking for your support for this year. By participating in this challenge, we are eligible to receive a percentage of the amount we collect from the Feinstein Foundation. Each year, we have seen the percentage grow.
We have seen the need for our services grow as well. Your donation will enable Loaves and Fishes to continue providing service to our community’s hungry citizens.
Receiving your donation, before April 15th, will allow us to include it in the amount reported to the Feinstein Foundation as we receive additional funding from them.
Your consideration of this request is appreciated.
Donation can be made to:
