🚛 Help Gather Keep Feeding Our Community!
On May 10th, Gather's refrigerated box truck was totaled in an accident. Fortunately, no one was hurt, and no other cars were involved. However, we are now facing unexpected costs to ensure our vital services continue uninterrupted.
Why We Need Your Help:
- We are paying $1,100 per week to rent a truck.
- Our insurance will only cover $1,500 in total for the rental.
- Getting a new truck could take several months.
- Insurance will only pay the current cash value of the truck, so we will need to make up the difference between that and the cost of a new truck.
We are a boots on the ground organization and without a truck we physically cannot get food out to people in need. With the rising rate of food insecurity, Gather’s services have never been more critical and we cannot serve our community with only one truck.
How You Can Help: We are asking for your support to cover the cost of the rental truck. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a huge difference. Your generosity will ensure that we can continue to provide food to those who need it most.

Thank you for supporting Gather in this critical time. Together, we can get Gather back on the road and continue to our work of ensuring that our communities stay hunger-free.
