Who-What-Where? Does anyone know what fundraising event this was?

The Art of Giving was one of the first repeated events at Food For Thought, which brought together local artists to help raise money for the programs at Food For Thought. Even though we no longer hold this event, we are so thankful to be able to work with various local artists who help support Food For Thought.

Currently, our blackboard was painted by Alison Wickey to commemorate our 10-year anniversary! Thank yo for capturing the last 10 years, and helping us look forward so that we may sustain-serve and grow to help our community!

Over the holidays, we also had the help from Students and teachers from the Gateway Academy in Miramar Beach! These students came before school in the business of their finals week to come help pack backpacks at the Destin pantry. Thank you for donating your time to help those in need!

Who - What - Where?

Any guess Where this is?! Before Food For Thought had our own location, we were fortunate to be able to use space at Good News Church in Santa Rosa Beach to store food and pack backpacks on a weekly basis. We are thankful for the continued partnership we have had with this Church, even as we outgrew their donated space and moved into our location in 2011!

Jumpback Monday!

A few weeks ago we saw the first glimpse of the Santa Rosa Beach pantry when we first purchased the location - here is the pantry a few years in with some of the renovations completed - still was a long way from where we are today. We are so thankful for our completed pantry in Santa Rosa Beach that allows us to pack backpacks weekly, in addition to having cooking classes for students in the Emeril Lagasse Full Circle Kitchen!

Any guess What this is?

These bags are the first delivery of food to schools in 2010. We look at these four bags and are amazed at how many more (3,296!) students are now fed due to the help and generosity of our community!
