PROVIDING FOOD AND SUPPORT TO THOSE IN NEED SINCE 1977, THE WHITE BEAR AREA EMERGENCY FOOD SHELF WORKS TOWARD INCREASING ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD FOR ALL OUR NEIGHBORS IN THE WHITE BEAR AREA. PROGRAMS INCLUDE: MONTHLY MARKET, BONUS FRIDAY, KID PACK, MOBILE MARKET, COMMUNITY RESOURCE SUPPORT, AND A FAMILY STABILITY EMERGENCY FUND.
THE WHITE BEAR AREA EMERGENCY FOOD SHELF HAS BEEN SERVING THE WHITE BEAR LAKE COMMUNITY FOR OVER 40 YEARS. IN 2019, WE PROVIDED 749,187 MEALS TO 4,900 INDIVIDUALS (UNDUPLICATED). OVER 1/3 OF INDIVIDUALS VISITING THE FOOD SHELF IN 2019 WERE VISITING FOR THE FIRST TIME. ON ANY GIVEN MONTH, OVER 1,200 FAMILIES RECEIVED SUPPORT FROM THE WHITE BEAR AREA EMERGENCY FOOD SHELF. OF THE INDIVIDUALS SERVED, 47% ARE CHILDREN AND 12% ARE SENIORS 65 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER. IN RECENT YEARS, WE HAVE EXPANDED OUR SERVICES AND STRENGTHENED OUR STRATEGIES TO MEET THE CHANGING NEEDS OF OUR COMMUNITY. CURRENT FOOD SUPPORT PROGRAMS INCLUDES: MONTHLY MARKET, BONUS FRIDAY, WEEKEND KID PACK, AND MOBILE MARKETS.
RESOURCE SUPPORT PROGRAM -OUR ROLE IN PROVIDING FOOD IS CRITICAL FOR FAMILIES IN CRISIS AS THEY NAVIGATE ISSUES WITH HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, CHILD CARE, EMPLOYMENT, AND OTHER BASIC NEEDS. WHILE WE WORK HARD TO PARTNER WITH OTHER LOCAL AREA RESOURCES TO HELP MEET THESE DEMANDS, THERE ARE OFTEN TIMES WHEN ADDITIONAL HELP IS NECESSARY. THANKS TO A PARNTERSHIP WITH LOCAL CHURCHES, COMMUNITY GROUPS, AND A GRANT FROM OTTO BREMER TRUST, THE WHITE BEAR AREA EMERGENCY FOOD SHELF HAS ESTABLISHED A FAMILY STABILITY EMERGENCY FUND, A FUND OF LAST RESORT TO ASSIST NEIGHBORS WITH ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR BASIC NEEDS SUCH AS RENT, UTILITIES, MEDICINE, AND CAR REPAIRS.
