Thank You, Cortes! YES, WE DID IT!
We are thrilled to announce that thanks to your incredible generosity, we have successfully met our urgent appeal goal to renovate two sea cans into our new home!
This achievement belongs to every single one of you. Whether you donated $10 or a much larger amount, every contribution was a vital piece of the puzzle. Together, you've built the essential infrastructure we need to serve our community.
What Your Support Has Built:
Thanks to you, we now have two fully insulated, food-safe sea cans. This space will allow us to securely store supplies and serve our clients efficiently, ensuring we meet our target to be fully operational with this first phase by fall.
But our vision continues! As client numbers rise, we plan to make further improvements early next year, transforming this location into a truly welcoming and operationally efficient food security hub.
A Special Thanks to the fantastic contractors who worked with us (Nick of Container Bros, Byron of Wired Electrical), and an extra round of applause for Mack's Flooring Co. for their generous donation of the flooring!
From the entire food bank team and the clients we serve, thank you for making this possible. Your support is building a stronger, more resilient community.
