There are many Food Distribution programs in our area... but there are many issues complicating the overall efforts to feed the hungry.

1. There is a communications gap between the food providers and the people that need the food.

2. Many times the food distribution programs are not located for easy access.

3. Some food distribution programs are held at hours that are inaccessible to the people that need the food.

4. Transportation of the foods to the designated locations for distribution may not be available when needed

5. Finding enough staff or volunteer assistance to operate the program

 

Our goal is to fight hunger in our communities. We use all available resources to accomplish this goal. Effective methods of communications is important to our success. The Abundant Giving network of providers have enabled us to expand our reach into rural and under-served communities.
