​HELP US HELP MORE FAMILIES

​The 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. Source: The State of Hunger in Minnesota, Hunger Solutions Minnesota. ​


The Bridge has had a 26.3% increase in the number of visits from December 2021 to December 2022. 

Your continued support is essential in providing the temporary assistance clients need to make it through the month. 

Food can dropped off at:
Central Market or Service Foods in Perham
Food or money can be dropped off at:
510 4th Avenue NW in Perham during regular hours.
Special arrangements can be made by calling 218-346-6181.
