Mission: To alleviate some of the most visible symptoms of poverty through connecting families with "more" to families with "profoundly less" living in some of our country''s most impoverished areas. Through an exchange of letters between sponsored and sponsoring families we experience "living emapthy" and create "community".
Programs: Family-to-family is a not-for-profit hunger relief program for profoundly poor and hungry families in the us. The program, which is community based, connects families with more with families who have less. Most 'sponsoring' families send monthly funds to family-to-family inc. And family-to-family inc. Sends those funds to a local grocery store in the receiving community where groceries are boxed for the 'adopted' families. Some 'sponsoring' families still pack their own monthly boxes with groceries and family-to-family inc. Ships those boxes to the local community for the 'adopted' families. Additionally, each month 'the community' of sponsors sends clothing, books, medicines etc. To the adopted community's food pantry for general distribution.
