Frequently Asked Questions
How can I help?
We love this question! You can donate your time to volunteer during packing day. You can donate your talents to assist in the operations of a successful nonprofit organization. You can donate money and we will use it in the best way to maximize the investment. You can organize a fundraiser. You can help us spread the word about our good work through word of mouth and social media.
How much of my donation directly supports the cause?
All of it! Because we are an all-volunteer organization, the money donated to our organization goes to directly support our mission to provide food to our community in December of each year. More than 90% of our costs involve purchasing the food. The remainder of our budget goes to purchasing boxes, postage for our fundraising efforts, website hosting and State registration fees. None of our board members or volunteers are paid.
Does your organization discriminate?
Our organization does not advocate, support, or practice discrimination based on age, ethnicity, gender, national origin, disability, race, size, religion, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic background. We welcome all volunteers, donors, and partners. We distribute our food boxes strictly based on need to people of all ages, races, religions, abilities, ethnicities and genders.
