DONATE HERE! 💵 ------> https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/monarch-awards-foundation-inc-2026-community-feeding-donation-drive

Since its inception over 20 years ago, our program has worked to ensure no family should go without a meal, especially during the holidays. Over the past two decades, we’ve provided food to over 15,000 families, currently directly impacting more than 8,000 individuals each year.

We have spent over $400,000 on the Annual Community Feeding, of which more than 45% has been funded by external donations. Over 60% of the Annual Community Feedings' spending is allocated to food, and in 2025, the Annual Community Feeding cost exceeded $80,000.

This year, we are asking that you dig deep and donate what you can to help us close the gap to reach our goal.
