  • A Message from Tiffanie: #GivingTuesdayNow

    Food For Thought is preparing for another summer of food services in Walton and Okaloosa Counties.

    This year will look different, because it has to. However, our commitment to fighting food insecurity remains the same. Food For Thought will now provide five pick-up locations to better serve the families in our program. Each weekly service will distribute no less than 30 food items to each family during this challenging time.

    Our team has been working hard to gather information and adjust our programs in order to provide safe and impactful services. Food For Thought is taking this time day-by-day just like the rest of you, but what I do know is, FFT will show up for our community and children just as we have since 2010. Your support means so much to us; we recognize every one of us is being impacted by COVID-19.

    While this is not exactly the 10 year anniversary we had planned, it is a perfect demonstration of what Food For Thought brings to our community. Thank you all for your continued support. 

    Stay Well,

    Tiffanie Nelson

  • Tomorrow! #GIVINGTUESDAYNOW

    SAVE THE DATE for #GIVINGTUESDAYNOW - Next Tuesday, May 5th! On May 5, 2020 we come together as a global community...

    For this day of giving, Food For Thought will be kicking off our Sponsor a Family Program, in order to continue to feed families over the summer months.

    Typically, we feed 600 families each summer, but in the current environment, we know that the need will be ongoing and growing, so we expect this number to grow.

    #HowWeHelp: By continuing to fight childhood hunger, and be a support of our community during this pandemic to ensure no one is left hungry while schools are closed

    #YouCanHelp: By donating on May 5th. No amount is too small and all amounts add up to help fight the hunger gap.

  • Thank you, grant and corporate sponsors!

    We want to share a heartfelt thank you to all of our grant and corporate sponsors.  Without the support of the below foundations and businesses, Food For Thought would not be able to serve our community to fight childhood hunger, especially during this unique time when our food services have been modified and we have additional families recently utilizing Food For Thought to help feed their children.  Thank you!
