ADVANCE – Our Daily Bread Food Pantry has received $3,100 from the Food Lion Feeds Charitable Foundation to help nourish neighbors experiencing hunger.
The “Nourishing Our Neighbors” grant supports community feeding partners as they tackle food insecurity and promote healthier lifestyles through nutritional education initiatives.
“Our Daily Bread Food Pantry volunteers and clients very much appreciate the generosity of the Food Lion Feeds Charitable Foundation’s gift to our pantry,” says Karen Deadmon, board of directors president at Our Daily Bread. “Our pantry is over 15 years old and operates with dedicated volunteers. We are currently serving a tremendous number of clients, so this grant comes at a needed time. Our volunteers are blessed to be able to do the work we do for our community.”
The Food Lion Feeds Charitable Foundation is committed to supporting families facing food insecurity across its 10-state footprint. Established in 2001, the foundation provides financial support for programs and organizations dedicated to feeding neighbors in the communities it serves. Since its inception, the foundation has awarded more than $19.6 million in grants.
The charitable foundation partners with Feeding America, the nation’s largest hunger-relief agency, in addition to local food agencies serving the 10 Southeastern and Mid-Atlantic states.
