Project Angel Food – Click here to donate
Help Project Angel Food deliver meals to those at highest risk for Coronavirus. Clients receive a food kit that includes shelf stable, nutritionally complete meals that are easy to heat and eat.
Feeding America Riverside-San Bernardino – Click here to donate
Feeding America Riverside-San Bernardino is now conducting drive-thru style food distributions to meet the need to feed people while keeping social distance. With that comes the need for additional supplies like boxes, tape, bags, and more to continue to meet the demand. In addition, social distancing has meant that our food bank has had to put a hold on volunteers serving in our warehouse. This means that staff members have now shifted to supporting warehouse efforts while putting administrative duties on hold. Help Feeding America support these efforts with a donation by clicking above, or by texting ENDCOVID19 to 41444. Message and data rates apply.
