in our community each year.
We are absolutely committed to provide food at no cost to over 400 pantries and programs. 100% of donations stay here in our community and with a staff of only 10, our administrative cost is consistently about 1%. As Ohio’s only independent food bank, our funding comes from companies, organizations and people like you. Thanks for helping.
Current Programs
“Mom, Can I Have Some Milk Money?”
Help us answer the question with a “YES!”
When school is out, most kids have an enjoyable summertime. But for the one in five children in our regional community living with food-insecurity, it’s different. There’s no school lunches to provide important nutrition and the need for fresh milk is critical for growing kids. That’s why we’re asking for your help in funding Milk Money For Kids™.
Scramble for Food™
Monday July 15, 2019
Save the Date! Designed to raise awareness and money, our 3rd annual Golf Outing to help fight Childhood Hunger will be held on Monday July 15, 2019 at Belmont Country Club. Have an enjoyable day on a beautiful course. Lunch from 11:30 with 1 PM shotgun. Food and prizes included in your team’s entry fee of $500 per foursome. Hole sponsorships $150.
MATCHING SPONSORS NEEDED
Our “Milk Money For Kids” program provides summertime milk for thousands of kids when school lunches are not available. The collection occurs in May & June, but we’re looking for a few “Matching Sponsors”. We need a few sponsors willing to match up to $200, $500 or even $1,000. If interested, please email or call Cheri Dennis at 419-244-6996.
ALICE’S MOBILE MARKET
Our Farm Market Truck Is Getting Ready To Roll
Senior poverty and hunger affect one in six seniors here in Toledo. Beginning in July and continuing through October, our market truck brings fresh fruits, vegetables and other foods to over 25 senior living facilities in the Toledo area each week.
HELP US ACCEPT FOOD DONATIONS!
How many will 40,000 pounds of food feed? Quite a few. When we receive large donations of food from area processors and distributors, it’s great news! But we must provide the transport from their dock to our distribution center--which can cost as much as $600. Your donation to our Freight Fund helps us accept the donation.
