This year, Loaves & Fishes is celebrating a special milestone—our 40th Anniversary. As we enter the Thanksgiving season, it’s a perfect time to pause and reflect on the many blessings in our lives. Loaves & Fishes has been blessed with a community that continues to support our mission.
For many, this time of year brings joy, warmth, and togetherness. Yet, we are aware that this season brings added stress for people as they struggle to provide for their loved ones. We serve almost 10,000 individuals each week, and as the holidays approach, we anticipate even more families seeking assistance. The food we provide our clients is more than simply filling their shelves; it offers comfort, hope, and a reminder that they are not alone.
This year, on December 3, Giving Tuesday, we invite you to consider giving a gift to further our mission. We are thrilled to announce that we will again have a matching gift opportunity this year, meaning your donation will go twice as far. No gift is too small, and every contribution helps lift the burden for someone in need. Visit our website or social media outlets for exciting updates on how you can double the impact of your kindness this holiday season.
We are incredibly thankful for the partnerships, volunteers, and donors who have walked alongside us for 40 years, helping us meet the growing needs of our community and serving those facing food insecurity with care and compassion. You have helped us make a difference in thousands of lives, and for that, we are endlessly grateful.
Please join us for our Anniversary Open House on Friday, November 15, between 2-4PM at the Frank J. Rus & Donald S. Toy, Food Market & Resource Center, 1871 High Grove Lane to celebrate the tremendous support of our community over the past 40 years.
