March is Minnesota Food Share’s Food Campaign.
In Matthew 24:35, we read: “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me.”
- 1 in 10 Minnesota families experiences food insecurity.
- In 2014 there were over 3 million food shelf visits in Minnesota.
- Last year the March Campaign raised more than 4.7 million pounds of food and $8 million for food shelves around the state.
- Your local food shelf can make each dollar donated stretch further through their access to low-cost products.
Hunger is still a problem in Minnesota. Here in Waseca, we have a couple of opportunities to give. Donations of food items or money can be given to Grace Lutheran’s Food Shelf or to the Waseca Area Neighborhood Center. This task can’t be done by one or two people but it will take all of us working together to help our neighbors who do not have enough to eat.
