I wish you could hear from each child, senior, and family you’ve helped this year. They would tell you how grateful they are for what you’ve done.
The face of hunger continues to evolve across the counties we serve. A family or individual can be fine one day — but hard times can begin the very next with an unexpected job loss, rent increase, or a health diagnosis. On top of that, families are still paying more for necessities like groceries and utilities. But their wages haven’t kept up.
Your gift today will help nourish more lives — and distribute meals every day through food pantries, senior centers, and mobile distributions.
Your support provides hope in the following ways:
- Distributing food with over 750 feeding partners across Brevard, Lake, Marion, Orange, Osceola, Seminole and Volusia Counties.
- Preparing meals for kids and seniors at Mercy Kitchen.
- Fueling the next generation with nutritious meals at Kids Cafes, School Partnership Sites and Summer Food Service sites.
- Mobilizing critical meals and water to neighborhoods impacted by hurricanes.
- Increasing access to fresh produce and providing nutrition education classes.
- Offering career and life skills training for students in the Culinary Training Program.
It takes more than distribution centers, trucks, and programs to feed your community. It takes caring friends like you who take action to help your neighbors thrive.
Thank you for your kindness and for making an impact. Together we can fight hunger.
With gratitude,
Derrick Chubbs
President & CEO
