We get food from a few different places:

Donations from businesses, farms, and community members

Purchasing from local partners

Fresh produce from local farms

Food drives hosted by schools, churches, and community groups

That’s a common myth and we get it! While we receive some donated food, most of the food we provide is purchased. Luckily, we have strong buying power thanks to our partnerships with food banks and suppliers. That means we can stretch every dollar further and get more food for less. Hosting a fundraiser is one of the BEST ways to support us!

We’re funded through:

• Donations from individuals and families

• Business and corporate sponsors

• Community fundraisers

• Grants from foundations

• In-kind donations (like food, delivery, or volunteer time)
  

We work hard to make every dollar count and stretch resources to help as many kids as possible.

So glad you asked! There are lots of ways to make a difference:

• Donate: Just $10/month helps feed a child every month

• Volunteer: Help us pack bags, sort food, or support events

• Host a fundraiser: Perfect for schools, businesses, or clubs

• Sponsor a program or event: Businesses can make a big impact

• Spread the word: Follow us on social media and share our mission

Absolutely! We love working with local businesses, civic groups, schools, and churches. Whether you want to donate, fundraise, or volunteer, we’ll help you find a way to get involved that fits your goals.

Because no child should ever go hungry. When kids are fed, they can focus, learn, and thrive. Together, we can CHOP Out Hunger—one meal, one child, one community at a time.
