Providing emergency food assistance and practical support to families experiencing hardship

This program was born from the many calls we received from hardworking individuals and families who had simply fallen on difficult times. Parents doing their very best, stretching every dollar, just trying to make it to the next paycheck. Sometimes it was a mother calling because she needed diapers. Other times it was someone wondering how they would put a meal on the table for their children.

As a charity that relies entirely on the generosity of others, we couldn't always provide everything they needed. Often, all we could offer were words of encouragement and connections to the incredible community partners we've built relationships with over the years. Those conversations stayed with us.

As a female-founded and female-led organization, with 95% of our team being women, many of us could relate to those struggles. As the saying goes, "Who knows it, feels it." We knew we had to try and do more.

So, the Pantry Program was born. 

With your support, we received donation bins that our amazing students proudly painted with love and creativity. Seeing our community come together has been nothing short of inspiring.
