Streams Food Center: Meeting a Growing Need

In 2024, we  welcomed more neighbors than ever to the Streams Food Center. With an 11% increase in families seeking support, 2024 became our busiest year yet. At the same time, we’re facing a 17% drop in corporate food donations, making it more challenging to keep our shelves stocked. As stores donate less, and nearby pantries shift to pre-packaged boxes, more people are turning to Streams, not only for food but for the dignity of choosing items that best suit their families’ needs. For many, this simple choice offers a sense of control and respect in uncertain times.

At Streams, our mission goes beyond feeding people—it’s about creating a community built on respect and kindness. Our dedicated volunteers and staff greet every neighbor with a warm smile, listen to their stories, and pray for each other. As one neighbor recently expressed, “Thanks to all of you at Streams of Hope for your gift of service with a smiling face each time I come to shop. God bless you.”

With the growing need and fewer donations, your support is more essential than ever. Together, we can continue welcoming each neighbor with compassion and help create a healthier, more connected community. A gift from you can make a profound difference in sustaining a thriving, resilient neighborhood.

We prayerfully invite you to join us in supporting our programs. With your gift, you’re part of building a vibrant, healthy community that uplifts every neighbor. Thank you for considering this opportunity to make a lasting impact.
