ORGANIZATION: Food For Thought

Cereal at a Food Drive
"Hi! We're holding a food drive and CEREAL IS ON SALE!"

This is a great opportunity for those who work during the week but want to help once a month for a few hours!

On the first Saturday of every month, volunteers conduct a food drive outside the doors the Safeway store on 4th Street in Santa Rosa (and many more markets across Sonoma County). Food drive volunteers offer flyers to shoppers as they enter the door, asking them to buy extra items while they shop and then receive the donations in bins as the shoppers exit.

About Food For Thought

Mission Statement

To foster health and healing with food and compassion

Description

Food For Thought is a nonprofit organization that provides lifesaving nutrition support to low-income people living with COVID-19, HIV and other serious illnesses across Sonoma County. For more than 30 years, we have engaged in service to our community to provide healthy food to our neighbors in need. A group of friends in Guerneville founded FFT in 1988 amidst the AIDS epidemic to provide groceries to our seriously ill neighbors. Over time, we have shifted our focus from providing end-of-life care to providing comprehensive nutrition services, and we have expanded our eligibility to those affected by a wide range of serious illnesses.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, demand for our programs has skyrocketed. In 2020, FFT brought healthy food to more than 4,000 people in Sonoma County.
