Monthly gifts let us plan the year
A monthly gift lets us plan staffing and stock the truck without waiting on each week's fundraising. $25 a month is a week of fresh produce for one household, every month.
Monthly gifts also cost less to process, so more of each dollar reaches families, and they keep hampers going in March and July when giving slows down.
