In Response to Rise In Food Insecurity Due to Impact of COVID-19, Loaves & Fishes Increases the Number of Pantry Visits for Clients

As we continue to see food insecurity rise, the Loaves & Fishes Board of Directors made the unanimous decision to temporarily increase the number of pantry visits a client is eligible from 8 times per rolling calendar year to 12 times due to the economic and health challenges this pandemic has caused for our community.  By extending eligibility to 12 visits within a 365 day period it is our hope that this will help alleviate some of the stress of so many who are suffering from the economic impact of COVID-19.

The Board will revisit the eligibility requirement in 6 months.
