One day. One goal. One million meals.

Demand for food assistance continues to grow.
Over the past year, the price of groceries has raised by more than 13 percent. Some staple products, like flour, eggs, butter, and margarine, have increased in price by 20% or more.
“Food shelf near me” was the #10 search in Google for the Twin Cities in 2022, showing just how widespread hunger is in our communities.
