As 2025 comes to a close, we want to take a moment to say thank you and express our heartfelt gratitude for all the support that we were shown this year.
Because of you—our donors, volunteers, partners, advocates, and supporters—thousands of neighbors across our community had access to nourishing food this year. You filled plates, eased stress, and reminded families that they are not alone.
Your generosity showed up in so many meaningful ways throughout 2025. Whether you gave a monetary donation, volunteered your time, hosted a drive, spread the word about our mission, or partnered with us, you played a role in creating real, lasting impact.
Because of you:
- Families had warm, nutritious meals on their tables.
- Children went home with food during moments of uncertainty.
- Our team and agency partners were able to serve our community with compassion.
Every box packed, every delivery made, and every distribution held was powered by people like you who believe that no one in our community should go hungry!
Milestones We Reached in 2025
We reached several new milestones in 2025, thanks to the help of all our supporters and community partners.
- We now have over 380+ agency distribution partners.
- We finished the second round of Fresh Food Pharmacy.
- We hosted Mobile Markets in all eight counties that we serve.
- We have over 30 new corporate partners that support our mission.
- Volunteers began joining us out in the field at our distributions.
- We added Cherie Good to our board from Dawn Foods!
Looking Ahead to 2026
As we look toward the year ahead, we carry your generosity with us. Food insecurity may continue to rise, but we are committed to serving our community and are deeply grateful to have you alongside us in this important work!
From all of us at SMFB, thank you for being part of our mission in 2025. Your support made a difference, and we couldn’t do this without you.
With gratitude,
The SMFB Team
