Last year, Interfaith served and provided more than 375,000 meals to people in need throughout North County and more than half of those served were children. With the help of local service clubs, faith centers, corporations, and schools, we are able to provide a 3-day supply of emergency food for families struggling in our community.
Want to help make a difference in your own community? Hunger is not only a seasonal need, but a year-round struggle for many of our neighbors. Our Director of Basic Needs, Jerry Morgan, coined the campaign "Hunger Has No Holidays" to encourage local groups to organize food drives not only during the holiday season, but throughout the spring and summer as well. Warmer summer months are historically "slower" times for food drive giving and our pantry is often unable to keep up with the demand. Make a real difference and help Interfaith feed those in need every day of the year!
