OUR MEAL BOX SUPPORT PROGRAM: Food for Families
Providing Vital Food Assistance to Families in Need
Our goal is to provide our essential meal box support to those in need in Statesboro, GA, and other surrounding communities in need.
With the TEFAP & USDA Emergency Assistance Program, we do our best to ensure that nutritious food is accessible to all.
What is TEFAP?
The Emergency Food Assistance Program, TEFAP, is a federal initiative aimed at providing nutritious, high-quality food to low-income individuals and families. This essential program allows us to distribute food to our community members, enhancing food security, and promoting a healthier, hunger-free environment.
The TEFAP program is a lifeline for individuals and families facing food insecurity. This program, funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), plays a pivotal role in our mission to ensure that no one in our community goes to bed hungry.
Together, We Can
Over the years, we've adapted to the changing needs of the community, working to ensure that food assistance remains accessible to all.
We are:
- Official Partners of America's Second Harvest of Coastal Georgia Distribution Program.
- Supported by The United Way of the Coastal Empire, whose mission is to improve lives by mobilizing community support.
