Every month, over 1,000 families visit the food shelf for food and support. Through programs like our Monthly Market, Mobile Markets, Free Farmers Markets, Bonus Saturdays, KID Packs, and School Food Pantries, we are able to provide healthy groceries to families struggling to make ends meet.
Through our Community Resource Program and the WBAEFS Emergency Fund, we are able to partner with local services to connect families to essential resources for housing, utilities, additional food support, legal advice, job skills, health care, and more. (Click on their names to learn how we recently helped Ken and Ann with the WBAEFS Emergency Fund).
Since 1977, WBAEFS has served as a crucial resource to families experiencing hunger in the White Bear Area but we can't do it without you!
Will you help us reach our year end goal? We offer no fancy gimmicks or celebrity endorsements, just a solid mission and an humble ask- "Please, donate to your local food shelf before the ball drops and help provide healthy groceries and meaningful support to neighbors struggling to make ends meet."
A recent neighbor shopping the market on Bonus Saturday said it best,“I want you to know that people from all walks of life are hungry, they need food, and what you are doing is saving lives.”
Thank you for saving lives. Thank you for supporting your local food shelf.
Warmly,
Andrea Kish-Bailey
Executive Director
PS. Because of you, neighbors have access to healthy food and meaningful support allowing them to feel satisfied, supported, and living life abundantly.
