Food shelf visits in Minnesota have surged to record levels.
This dramatic increase reflects the growing strain on households as food costs
remain high and critical safety-net programs face uncertainty. In recent years,
as changes and challenges to SNAP benefits and other federal supports
were debated and implemented, food shelves experienced ripple effects, with an
even greater number of neighbors turning to charitable food assistance to
fill widening gaps.Come help us and be a part of our community for a FUN filled, energized, and rewarding opportunity to distribute food to the local community!
Every Tuesday we come out to join the families we serve as they join us in getting fresh foods! Come join us as we help provide set up, sorting, and food distribution to our AMAZING nutritional services team and the local East Side St. Paul community!
