Preparing for possible impacts from Hurricane Isaias

As Hurricane Isaias approaches, we’re preparing for possible impacts to our service-area, including heavy rain, strong winds, flooding, and power outages.

Now is the time to make sure your household is prepared, stay informed through local weather and emergency management updates, and check in on family, friends, and neighbors.

Stay safe, stay informed, and be prepared. 💚

We’re incredibly grateful to Publix and Publix Charities for their longstanding commitment to helping fight hunger across the Big Bend.

Thanks to their generous donation, we’ll be able to better serve our neighbors across the Big Bend and get more food where it’s needed most.

But their commitment extends beyond financial support. As part of Publix Serves Week, Publix associates rolled up their sleeves and volunteered alongside our team, packing Senior Boxes and assembling Snack Packs for our Child Nutrition Program.

We’re grateful for Publix and Publix Charities for investing in our community through both generous financial support and hands-on service.

Last week, we officially celebrated the grand opening of our brand-new Impact Center! 🎉

From the ribbon cutting to a full day of tours, volunteering and community connection, it was an incredible way to celebrate this exciting new chapter for our organization.

Our 28,000-square-foot Impact Center gives us more space to fight hunger, engage our community and create an even greater impact across the 16 counties we serve.

We’re so grateful to everyone who helped make this vision a reality and to the volunteers, donors, partners and community members who joined us to celebrate. We can’t wait to see all that happens in this new space! 💚

Our brand-new Hunger Action Center is already making an impact!👏

Following the ribbon cutting for our new Impact Center, more than 150 volunteers joined us for a Packing Blitz. From 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., volunteers packed Senior Boxes (CSFP) and Snack Packs to support our Child Nutrition Program.

We’re grateful to everyone who showed up and helped us make an impact in our community.
