SPONSOR FOOD SUPPLIES FOR NEEDY FAMILIES:
Several poor and low-income families face food insecurity daily, having no reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food. Most of these families live on less than $5 daily, which often leads to hungry nights for their children. You and your friends can donate grocery items to struggling families on behalf of the InnerCity Mission.
