The Emergency Food Program is a direct service operated out of our warehouse. We provide a food package consisting of both shelf stable food items and healthy perishables to qualified families or individuals in crisis. Typically, perishable food provided through this program includes fruits, vegetables, dairy, bakery goods and protein.
Recipients are determined by agency referral or intake evaluations by staff, and during the current financial climate in our country they are eligible to access this program once a week. Under normal circumstances, recipients are eligible to come up to four times in a six month period.
For more information about the Emergency Food Program, please contact us (970) 356-2199 x308. If you are in need of emergency food assistance, visit our resource page here or find assistance in your immediate area through our Find Food Right Now page here.
