raised by 11 people
$2,500 goal
For low-income people this is a time of a "perfect storm." When feeding their families, they are caught in a bind of difficult forces, since 1) grocery prices are up, 2) costs of transportation to get to a store are up, and 3) government support of food programs is down. Many people who never needed food assistance in the past are coming for help.
Wilkinsburg Community Ministry shares food with 4,500 households per month, and the need is growing. Will you help us share fresh, nutritious food with our neighbors in need? Your support will be immediately put to use at our busy food distribution site, which serves several communities in eastern Allegheny County.
I serve as vice president of the board of this organization, and I really appreciate your consideration of my request. Thank you!
