Funding Focus: Helping Families and Seniors Through The Holidays

Every November, Northshore Food Bank puts together special holiday meal boxes to help families prepare a Thanksgiving meal at home. Each box includes a turkey and all the fixings, giving families one less thing to worry about during the holiday season and adding warmth to their tables. This year, thanks to generous support from The Capital One Foundation, Weyerhaeuser, The First Bank, Lockheed Martin, and community donations, we distributed 500 holiday meal kits.
In addition to supporting families during the holidays, Northshore Food Bank provides support to the seniors in our community year round. Approximately 1,100 senior households regularly receive Staple Boxes, with many homebound seniors having their boxes delivered. Grants from the Pratt-Stanton Manor Fund and Walmart Giving, along with community donations, helps to provide meals for seniors living on fixed incomes or facing other challenges.
This support makes it possible to meet the needs of families and seniors, providing comfort and nourishment throughout the year.
