Powell Loose Change for Local Change!

The donation jars are still out in the Powell community!

When you see a PEP Foundation donation jar at a local business, consider dropping in a little spare change. Every contribution helps support efforts to strengthen our local food system through the Wyoming Grown Food Security Program.

From connecting local food with our schools to supporting food education, local agriculture, and greater access to locally grown food, your small contribution can help create a stronger, more resilient food system right here in Powell.

Small change can help grow something bigger.

Thank you to the local businesses hosting donation jars and to everyone who has already contributed. Together, we can invest in a healthier, more connected Powell community.

Look for the PEP Foundation donation jars around town and give what you can!

Here are our participating Powell locations!
