The 5th annual Foodies Grocery Games runs May 28 through June 4, 2023. This year’s goal is $20,000 to help the Food Bank provide up to 80,000 meals to neighbors across the Heartland.
To help those efforts, Foodie founder Jayne Timmerman, along with Daniel Jaksich, have graciously stepped up with a $10,000 match. The match will be awarded to the first team that reaches $10,000. We’re thrilled our first match coincides with the Foodies’ 10-year anniversary!
Your support is needed now more than ever, as the Food Bank continues to see a steady increase in the demand for food assistance. As referenced in the graph below—the Food Bank will serve nearly 1.8 million individuals this fiscal year—the most in our 42-year history.
