When was the last time you were truly hungry? No, not the type of hungry you get when you get engrossed in a project and can't pull yourself away. I'm talking the hunger you get when the cupboard is bare and there is no end in sight. Hopefully never. But even in a developed and progressive country such as ours, people go hungry. With rising gas prices, people are having to choose.
There is an answer to the food squeeze! It's called http://www.angelfoodministries.com/
Angel Food is a non profit food Co-op. There are no forms to fill out and your income is your business. Simply pick the package you want and prepay it. Then on your designated pick-up day, show up and pick up your boxes. If items are not picked up, they are donated to people in need.
I just love the program. It will feed a family of 4 for a week and it only cost $30. You can even use foodstamps for payment or you can pay online with a CC.
The food is first quality, name brand stuff, you have come to love. They also have a senior box. I ordered the senior box for my next door neighbor to make life a little easier.
So go ahead check it out. Encourage a friend or college student to try it. www.AngelFoodMinistries.com
The more people who participate the better the packages will get. There is power in many. So, if you know someone who could use a hand, why not gift them a box of angel food? If you are trying to stretch your own grocery budget it is a smart move. I'm looking forward to October 25th when I pick up my next AngelFood box.
