Thank you to all who donated over the holidays to our Giving Tuesday and to our Sponsor A Family Campaigns!

The money that was raised in these campaigns is the equivalent of feeding 688 families! This money was used for our Thanksgiving and Christmas Services, which each fed over 600 families (more than 1,200 meals for families provided for each holiday food service).

Giving Tuesday Raised: $12,864 (in 24 hours!!)

Sponsor a Family Holiday Raised: $14,638 (Nov - Dec)

This money will also be helpful to kick off our 2021 food services for the kids and families in our programs. We are so grateful for you all!!

Thanks to Bank of America and Merrill Lynch Wealth Management for this generous $10,000 grant for our curbside services!

$10,000 supplies food to all 5 curbside locations for an entire month! That's an average of 18 curbside distributions and 600 families served.

“Throughout this unique 2020 environment, my colleagues and I have supported FFT via financial contributions or through sweat equity volunteer opportunities. This contribution is another way the Merrill office in Destin is able demonstrate commitment to our community and to help those in need during the pandemic.” –

CoryFosdyk, Resident Director

We are blown away by the support that you all showed us yesterday during Giving Tuesday!!

Through your generosity, we exceeded our goal of raising enough money to feed 200 families for our Christmas service. . . Your donations will make it possible to feed 322 families!!

This is incredible as we are anticipating 300 more families for the 2020 holiday service than we served in 2019. Giving Tuesday donations will allow us to fund to feed these additional families!

Thank you!! #givingtuesday #gratitude #givingback #helpingcommunity

Thank you, Ameris Bank of DeFuniak Springs for contributing food for holiday services! We are thankful that our pantries are starting to fill up to be able to serve 500-600 families for Thanksgiving and Christmas!
