| All Faiths Food Bank
|
| Their
mission is to feed those in need, reduce food waste, and educate the community
as to the issues of hunger. They
are located at 717 Cattlemen Road in Sarasota.
During the summer and fall months, they are always in need of volunteers
to help with the sorting of food items for distribution to the community.
Contact them at 379-6333.
All Faiths Food Bank needs our
help now, more than ever as the need for food is rapidly increasing during these
hard economic times. The majority of
those receiving food are hard-working families who simply cannot make ends meet.
They are parents in minimum-wage jobs, the elderly on fixed incomes, and
children who not only face the prospect of going to school on an empty stomach,
but of going to bed on one, too.
