We receive the food from the USDA and also from local grocers and manufactures in the area. So sometimes, we’re at the will of whatever’s being donated to us but we really try to think strategically about the box, what were putting in it, and trying to make it last for a family of four for a couple of days.” THE THREE VARIETIES OF BOXES INCLUDE FRESH PRODUCE, SHELF STABLE ITEMS AND FROZEN GOODS.

The families get typically one box, it's good for a family of four. If you have a larger family then you're able to get more." "This is a good hardy box of protein for our clients today. It has a five pound bag of chicken and then four frozen meals that they can use throughout the week or the month. it's nice that its frozen because it'll keep for however long they need it. This is a great distribution because they're getting such a variety of food today, it's not just protein, not just veggies, not just canned food. So it'll last them for a long time."
