How It Works
- 100% volunteer-run — no paid staff
- No rental costs — church-owned facility
- Utilities covered by Head Start
- Nearly every dollar donated goes directly to food
As a partner with Food Bank for the Heartland, we can purchase food at discounted prices — including frozen meats, canned goods, and fresh produce (as available).
