Stock the Shelves
Feeding San Diego’s school pantries allow parents to pick up fresh, nutritious produce and pantry stapes at their children’s school.
Stock the Shelves
Feeding San Diego’s school pantries allow parents to pick up fresh, nutritious produce and pantry stapes at their children’s school. Thanks to a special matching challenge, every dollar you give during Stock the Shelves, up to $50,000, doubles to help provide 4 meals to students in need.
Every dollar you donate to Feeding San Diego helps provide two meals to San Diegans facing food insecurity. Our efficient model moves beyond a traditional food bank system to make your donation go even further in the community. By making a gift, you offer hope to children, seniors, families, and veterans.
There’s not enough money for me to survive. I have rent, utilities, food, gas. Right now, I’m tapped out. I don’t have any food.
“I get some disability, but I’m waiting for the rest of it to come in. There’s not enough money for me to survive. I have rent, utilities, food, gas. Right now, I’m tapped out. I don’t have any food. When I was in the Army, I got hurt. Fifty years later, my disability pay is finally catching up. I had to hire an agency to help. I’m going through sleep apnea, lung problems, trauma, arthritis, back pain, all that stuff. My refrigerator is empty. The EBT is $50 a month for a grown man. They say that’s the best they can give me because I’m getting Social Security and a veteran’s pension. That’s still no money. I’ve been canvassing food banks. I lived on the street for years, so I know how to survive, but with my condition and my age, it’s not the same. I’m really glad this is happening here.”
