The cost of groceries is rising at an unprecedented rate, creating challenges for many families in our community. With inflation impacting essential goods like food, families are struggling to keep nutritious meals on the table. Christy’s Foundation Food Relief Program is here to help during these trying times, ensuring that every family has access to the food they need.
The Rising Cost of Food: A Community Concern
Recent reports show that food prices have skyrocketed due to a variety of factors, including supply chain disruptions, increased production costs, and global events. Staples like fresh produce, meat, dairy, and even pantry essentials are seeing higher prices than ever before. For more details on how inflation is affecting food prices, you can read this report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Christy’s Foundation Food Relief Program: Our Role in Alleviating Hunger
At Christy’s Foundation, we believe that no family should have to choose between paying bills and putting food on the table. Our Food Relief Program is actively working to alleviate hunger by providing free, nutritious groceries to hundreds of families each week.
Every Wednesday at 12 PM, we distribute a wide variety of food items, including fresh fruits and vegetables, dairy products, meats, and non-perishable goods at our Glendale location. Our Northridge location, open every other Thursday, serves over 300 families weekly, and we are constantly expanding to meet the growing demand.
How You Can Help
We cannot tackle this crisis alone. Christy’s Foundation relies on donations, sponsorships, and the dedication of our volunteers to keep our Food Relief Program running smoothly. We are currently preparing for our Thanksgiving giveaway, aiming to distribute over 1,000 turkeys and other essential food items to families in need. Your support is crucial in making this possible.
