CalFresh
The state’s nutrition assistant program has expanded to help supplement food budgets to ensure families in our community have access to proper nourishment.
Those who qualify for CalFresh will receive an EBT card that works like a debit card at many grocery stores, farmer’s markets and even Amazon.
School Pantry
The School Pantry Program is ideal for students that have an adult available to prepare and cook meals for them. We supply family-sized bags of produce and nonperishable items monthly, with nutritionally valued menu items included based on feedback provided by the schools. This program encourages student families to experiment with new healthy recipes, share their love of cooking, with the benefit of the family enjoying a meal together. We distribute family bags of food benefiting hundreds of families per month.
Senior Program
In partnership with Sutter Health to meet the needs of our seniors in need of food assistance, we work with local senior communities to distribute produce bags and nonperishable items monthly. Our CalFresh team also helps with processing applications for those who qualify.
