Food Drive Victory! - We Did it.

When we first made the goal of collecting 1,000 items for our Back to School Food Drive, we knew it was ambitious, and we knew it would only happen if our community rallied together to make it happen.

And we did it!!! With YOUR help - we collected over 1,000 items for our Back to School Food Drive!

Our final count was 1,051 items, which will help fill our FREEdge for one calendar year.

The FREEdge is our on-site food pantry, accessible for anybody at anytime, no questions asked. As you may know, we stock the FREEdge weekly with fresh and local produce as well as cafe food from our very own Sweet Beet Cafe.

The non-perishable items collected during the Food Drive will perfectly supplement the FREEdge’s fresh offerings!

Now feels like a more important time than ever to help our neighbors in need, so thank you to everyone who was a part of this year’s Food Drive - we most definitely could not have done this without you.

Thank you to everyone who donated in-person and online.

This has been a true testament to the power of working together to make a collective goal come to fruition.
