Help Us Deliver Food to Families in Need
Due to the ongoing federal government shutdown, SNAP (FoodShare) benefits for November will be delayed. These benefits are 100 percent funded by the federal government; the shutdown needs to end before members can begin getting benefits again.
You can help by hosting a food drive ( ideas for Culturally Appropriate Food) and dropping the items off at a local pantry:
Fox Valley Food Pantries
Chippewa Valley Pantries
Beginning Nov. 3, you also can drop items at the World Relief office in Appleton:
- Appleton, 510 E. Wisconsin Ave. / 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday
Donations
Each donated item helps to create a safe and welcoming home for a new refugee family in Wisconsin.
Fox Valley Donations Contact: wisconsinresourceaides@wr.org
Chippewa Valley Donations Contact: Jodi Jewell (jjewell@wr.org)
Home is important to all of us.
Hundreds of refugee families are starting over across Wisconsin.
Will you join us as we prepare safe and welcoming apartments for these new neighbors?
