On Thanksgiving, we gave thanks. Now, we have GivingTuesday,

GivingTuesday Will Fund St. Joseph's
Fresh Food Initiative... For GivingTuesday this year, we are seeking donations to continue to fund our fresh produce initiative. Each month we purchase fresh produce to distribute along with the food pantry bags. The fresh fruit and vegetables are delivered the morning of the food distribution. Our goal is to make healthy foods available for our community members who struggle to access and afford fresh produce. Our client Jose said that he is “very grateful for the support. I have improved my awareness of nutrition and take better care of my body thanks to St. Joseph’s.” Please help us continue to provide nutritious foods to Jose and our community with a donation on GivingTuesday. Please use this Donate link for your contribution. |
