Here is a list of the ways you can make a difference in the lives of those in need in your area.
Kids Cafe
This is our childhood hunger initiative. SHFBM partners with agencies that already serve children at risk of hunger to help provide nutritious meals and snacks at their sites. We currently operate 33 of these sites in 9 different counties and serve thousands of children who might otherwise go hungry. Our goal is to have sites in all 19 counties within 5 years.
Mobile Pantry
This program is designed to deliver food to rural areas of our service region where poverty rates tend to be higher. Specially equipped trucks deliver 5,000 – 10,000 pounds of food per trip. Mobile pantry deliveries occur 10 months of the year with approximately 100 pantries held annually. In fiscal year 2007, we delivered over 1 million pounds of food and served almost 50,000 individuals through this program.
