DONATE

 

The Emergency Food Network receives no government funding; our operation depends exclusively on the generous support of individuals, schools, businesses, area churches, and civic groups. Because our operating expenses are minimal, approximately 90 cents of every dollar donated goes directly to program services.

The Emergency Food Network is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, so your donation is fully tax deductible.

We appreciate your gifts of MONEY and/or FOOD.
