HELP PROVIDE URGENTLY NEEDED FOOD

One in five children live in households that struggle to afford groceries. One in three households in Minnesota cannot make ends meet. And if SNAP benefits end, over 440,000 Minnesotans – including children, seniors and working families – will lose access to critical food support.

The need is immediate. We can’t do this without you. Gather your friends, family and neighbors to purchase, assemble and drop off packs filled with food staples for our neighbors.
