NUTRITION

Our Bags of Hope program began with the idea of providing good food to families in need, and assisting others who live in designated food deserts. Since its inception, the Food Program distributed gift cards for grocery stores, coordinated food giveaway events and delivered door-to-door bags of food and supplies.

In 2025, we will expand our program and take a closer look at what we are serving to the community and what we can do to ensure that we are providing food that has nutritional value. We do not want to distribute food that can contribute to the health disparities that already exist including childhood obesity and diabetes. 

This change in vision for the program, allows ACF to partner with organizations that can help us build our resources and create a positive connection to the food we buy, grow and eat. Harmony Village will be one of the largest initiatives that we will undertake as an organization and we are so excited about the partnerships and sponsorships that will be created from building such a plan for the future.
