While many of us enjoy the warmth and abundance of summer, the need for food assistance in Mercer County continues to grow, especially for families whose children rely on school meal programs during the academic year.
While funding changes have presented new challenges, our commitment to fighting hunger has never wavered. Behind the scenes, we’re working tirelessly – connecting with foundations, farmers, grocers, and local partners – to ensure every neighbor continues to have access to the food they need to thrive.
In this issue of Feeding Hope News, you’ll find stories of resilience, community support, and the impactful ways we’re continuing to plant seeds of hope across Mercer County.
