We are honored to announce that we are a finalist for the Ohio Association of Nonprofit Organizations’ Nonprofit Excellence Award. Across the state, nonprofits are nominated in 2 different categories (small to mid-size or large) in 3 regions (North, Central, and South) for a specific program or project. The program we chose to feature is our Mobile Pantry, which brings emergency grocery assistance to neighborhoods in need five times per month. Through this program, we feed approximately 400-500 families per month with the help of our partners, who make this possible.
We would like to take a few moments to thank these site partners for their help in continuing this amazing program:
- Monclova Community Center
- Lake Township Fire Department (and the Firebelles)
- CedarCreek Toledo Campus
- Nu-Vizion Church
- Lucas County CARE Team
And again…thanks to YOU, our amazing volunteers and donors, whose dedication keeps us going.
Also, a great big congratulations to Toledo Seagate Food Bank, who is also a finalist! We are proud to be a partner of Seagate, who provides us with FREE food to distribute through our pantries. Congratulations and Good Luck!
