Feed Fannin has reached the middle of its second annual Holiday Meals Campaign with the goal of providing hams and turkeys and all the trimmings for our neighbors in need as the last holidays of the year approach. We are pleased to report that the funds raised since Sept. 1 are quite promising.
Feed Fannin is a 501(c)(3) all-volunteer organization and is 100% funded through private donations. Rising food costs strain the limited income of many seniors in our community, single parents with children, and the disabled, who struggle with impossible choices between purchasing food or paying for medicine, gas, utilities or rent. There is nothing to compare to creating special occasions like a small but heartwarming feast with family and/or friends.
With your support, Feed Fannin can continue to address our neighbors’ basic need for food. A generous, anonymous donor has agreed to match all donations to Feed Fannin up to $20,000 through Oct. 31. Donations from those new to Feed Fannin will also be matched, up to an additional $5,000.
We continue to partner with the Fannin County Family Connection to provide food for their food pantry. Feed Fannin pays for most of the food distributed by the pantry. In addition, we provide produce grown at our Ada Street farm and purchase additional produce from local farms. Feed Fannin collaborates with several other local charitable organizations to help distribute this food to even more hungry people in our community.
