IFCS is on a mission to nourish lives and build stronger communities. In the fall of 2022, we realized that adequate response to increased hunger would not be sustainable with inflation, cuts to funding, and fewer donations.
When we’re feeling the limitations of these tough economic times, and need to call on the support of our community, we’re grateful for the help of great reporters! Thanks to our local media professionals for getting the word out to the community about our programs’ growth and financial needs. Thanks also to all who are responding with financial support to help nourish lives and build a stronger community through our OneCanFeed.org Hunger Alleviation Campaign.
