THANK YOU to all of the amazing donors that made this year’s Fill the Freezer a success!

This year 27 hogs were donated to the freezer to help fight food insecurity in our county. The Fill the Freezer initiative was launched in 2023 and a total of 73 hogs have now been donated.

We would also like to announce that we are now starting fundraising efforts in order to process 50 hogs to donate in 2026! Please see the QR code below for more information.

A special thank you to our partners at Columbia Gas & NiSource for covering processing costs, R&C Packing for donating time and treasure for processing and packing, the SE Ohio Foodbank for being the lifeblood of this initiative, and a special thank you to Kent Shawver and the GCJF for their cooperation in making this possible. 🧡🐷🐽

Another incredible event in the books!!!🧬🔬🧪

Yesterday we were honored to host COSI - Center of Science and Industry here in Gallipolis for a day of STEMM learning. Students from all over the county were able to participate in hands on science experiments in addition to meeting and interacting with some of our local employers. Thanks to Foundation for Appalachian Ohio for presenting us with this opportunity.

Thank you to Holzer Health System for sponsoring the event, providing a venue, and sharing some of your incredible staff as industry partners.

Thanks to our other industry partners J-LAR Fab Worx, Gavin Power Plant & Rolling Hills Generating, and JB-Nets Broadband Services for sharing what it is you do with our students.

And last but not least, thanks to Ohio Valley Bank for all the volunteers through their impact day program.

The freezer was filled!!!🐷🙌

A huge thank you to all our sponsors, donors, and exhibitors for supporting this incredible initiative. Because of you, roughly 3 months worth of protein will be supplied to Gallia county food pantries.

This year we were able to process 27 hogs towards the campaign in part due to the generosity of the Gallipolis Shrine Club helping cover additional processing costs. Thanks again to R & C Packing Inc, the Gallia County Jr Fair, Columbia Gas of Ohio, Nisource, and so many more.

If interested in further supporting this project and our goals of reaching 50 hogs next year, please contact us for more info. 🐖

We are super excited for another year of Fill The Freezer!!! If you are interested in donating or learning more, find us at the fair!!

The Gallia Community Foundation’s Fill the Freezer campaign is back for a third year and ready to score another triple win for our communities:

• For local 4-H youth
• For local families facing food insecurity
• For local food pantries serving our neighbors

This Saturday at the Gallia County Junior Fair, buyers at the junior livestock sale can donate their hog purchases and everyone can donate money to cover meat processing costs to fill the freezers of the county’s food pantries.

Together with the Gallia County Jr Fair Board, 4-H members, the SE Ohio Foodbank, local food pantries and corporate sponsors Columbia Gas of Ohio and the NiSource Charitable Foundation, we’re fighting hunger – one pig at a time.

We wanted to take a moment to thank our community partners for their generous support in the upcoming COSI event. They are vital to the work we do and deserve all the praise.

First & foremost, Holzer Health System has been there from the start of this project in providing a venue and the financial support to make this happen. As the largest employer in Gallia County, the STEM opportunities within their footprint are endless, and they fully understand the importance of building pathways for the youth of Gallia into the workforce.
