Feeding South Florida has been increasing our service to individuals and families who suddenly found themselves without the support they count on. The shutdown stalled paychecks and SNAP delays left households without the benefits they budget around. Many people who have never needed help before turned to us because there were no other options. Although the government has reopened and SNAP benefits have resumed, the strain these disruptions caused is still unfolding in very real ways. Families are now in recovery mode.
In response, Feeding South Florida’s Board of Directors wants to help ensure that food is available for anyone who needs it. They have committed to match and double every dollar donated in December, up to $135,000. Their commitment means that $1 this month provides 8 meals.
We’re asking you to join them. A contribution to the Board of Directors’ Matching Gift Challenge ensures that people across our community have reliable access to food as they work to recover from the past few weeks. It’s a way of showing that none of our neighbors has to navigate these disruptions on their own.
