YOUR SUPPORT IS
More people in Muncie are suffering from hunger now than perhaps ever. And this increase in demand for nutritional support is happening at a time when food costs are soaring. In May of this year, we provided 4435 people with 8870 meals.
Your contributions will have a direct and significant impact, helping to bring peace and comfort to those who are suffering.
