Reminder: There will be no Huntington Market tomorrow, 6.20.2026 as both Mid-Ohio Food Collective and United Way of Ross County will be observing the Juneteenth holiday. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to seeing you at our next Produce Market in Bainbridge.

Today, we honor Juneteenth, a day that marks freedom, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of justice. As we reflect on this important moment in our nation’s history, we also celebrate the strength, brilliance, and contributions of Black community members who continue to shape Ross County for the better.

United Way remains committed to building a community where equity is not just a value, but a lived reality for every person.

We are deeply thankful for the donors and volunteers who make our Mighty Active Packs program possible throughout the school year. Because of your generosity and commitment, we’re able to provide weekend food support to Ross County students who have been identified by their schools as food insecure.

Your kindness helps ensure children head into the weekend with stability, nourishment, and the reassurance that their community cares. We are truly grateful to offer this program and even more grateful for the people who make it happen.

Bridges Out of Poverty workshop—a nationally recognized training that equips our community with a deeper understanding of the daily challenges faced by individuals experiencing poverty and offers practical tools to better support families on their path to stability.

There’s still time to register for this free, one‑day Bridges Out of Poverty workshop. The collaboration and partnership behind this effort reflect the meaningful work happening every day in Ross County. If you’re interested in understanding poverty more deeply and helping strengthen support for families in our community, we encourage you to register.

Food for the Soul brought incredible heart to the World’s Best Truck Parade with Kenworth Truck Co. by hosting an Old-Fashioned Lemonade Stand and donating every dollar of proceeds to our United Way. This week, as we gathered our funded partners for our Impact Partner meeting, we were grateful to have Sally Rathkamp provide a beautifully catered luncheon for the event. Thank you for being an amazing part of the community!
