With donors’ help, food banks can fill community need

School is back in session and while some families think about activities and sports, there are far too many of our neighbors who don’t know where their next meal will come from. CommUnity Crisis Services and Food Bank tries desperately to fill that need.

Food bank funding depends on neighbors like you, with an astounding approximately 75 percent of all food bank funding coming from individual donors.

One dollar provides one pound of food when just about two years ago that same dollar provided five pounds of food. Our community needs all of us. Please consider donating to CommUnity Crisis Services and Food Bank. A little bit will go a long way to ensure that all of our community has the food they need.
