Fill the Gap for Families Facing Rising Costs

Right now, families in our community are making impossible choices every day. They’re choosing between groceries and medication, between paying rent and feeding their children. Many are visiting a food pantry for the first time because groceries simply cost more than their paycheck can stretch.

Even with SNAP benefits restored and incredible community generosity, families are still struggling. Food prices remain high, federal nutrition program cuts continue, and more neighbors than ever are relying on VEAP.

Your gift makes a powerful, local impact

Your support provides:

💚 Fresh, nutritious food for families facing empty cupboards

💚 Emergency financial assistance to keep neighbors safely housed

💚 Supportive services that help neighbors regain stability

Together, We’re Rising to Meet the Need

Every year, VEAP distributes over 4 million pounds of food (half of which is fresh produce!) to more than 200,000 people in our community. And right now, we’re sending out more than 350,000 pounds of food every single month. 

That’s the equivalent of nearly 10 fully loaded semitrucks filled with food, month after month – a scale of support made possible by donors like you!

You Can Make Sure No Neighbor Goes Hungry

Your gift puts meals on the table, keeps families safe in their homes, and reminds neighbors that their community stands with them.

Thanks to VEAP’s strong purchasing power, every dollar you give provides three meals for a neighbor.
