HELP US HELP MORE FAMILIESThe need for food assistance continues to grow in the Perham Area.
What to donate food or money?
Both are great, but money goes much further. We can stretch your dollar through our partnerships with the food industry. We get truckloads of produce and certain other items for the cost of shipping and handling. For every dollar donated we can get SIX times more food. Our goal is to meet the basic needs of our users while improving their nutritional well-being. We need YOU to help us reach our goal! The amount of food we distribute has been increasing each year. The face of hunger is not what most people think. In fact, the working poor are the fastest growing group of food shelf clients. 38% of households using food shelves report the family's major source of income is paid employment.
