Overview
Mission
Providing food and dietary education for the needy of the fox valley and surrounding areas.

Approximately 2,989 households were served during 2024. The program has two full time and six part-time paid employees. The program has approximately 282 regular volunteers from throughout the area who serve as drivers, sorters, distributors, interviewers, record keepers, supervisors, and directors. It takes 15 to 20 volunteers to run the program every day. A board of directors, consisting of volunteers plus one of the paid employees, oversee the program.
