    #GIVINGTUESDAYNOW | A GLOBAL DAY OF GIVING AND UNITY: MAY 5, 2020


    On May 5, 2020 we come together as a global community...

    To give. To help. To thank. To heal.


    #GivingTuesdayNow is a global day of generosity and unity, a day to come

    together and give back in response to the unprecedented need caused by

    COVID-19, no matter who or where we are.

     

    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 today. No amount is too small and all amounts add up to help fight the hunger gap.

  • A Note For Our Volunteers

    Since our modified services and volunteer schedule have been in place over the last month+, we wanted to reach out and just let you know that we miss all of you and are looking forward to the time when we can return to fuller volunteer shifts!

    In the meantime, we at Food For Thought are continuing to follow CDC guidelines and social distancing guidelines, which is why our volunteer shifts have been fewer and less people assigned.  We also are trying to uphold the Stay Home order that is currently in place and protect our community and those we serve the best we can.  


    We hope that you are all doing well and stay safe and healthy.  As soon as anything may change to the guidelines in place, we will send out additional information on how it may/may not affect our current modified services.
