            Neighbors Organized Against Hunger

A Community is People Working Together to Help People

One of our major partners is          

Redwood Empire Food Bank

.an umbrella organization which coordinates various food resources and makes that food available to pantries throughout the county.  Without this valuable resource, we could not do our job.  We shop at Redwood Empire on Tuesday mornings where $1.00 spent purchases at least $4.00 worth of food.   In addition to the food we purchased, Redwood Empire also makes available at no cost, bread and other baked goods and the all-important fresh produce.  The truck arrives early Wednesday afternoon when volunteers unload it and begin sorting and bagging.

 

In addition to the valuable help we get from Redwood Empire, some of the food we distribute comes from donations made by other businesses, organizations and individuals.

Fresh fruit is essential to good health and it is something that is frequently absent from the diets of families in crisis.

Helping others is fun and rewarding as demonstrated by the members of the Rohnert Park branch of
