Food For Hope Black Lives Matter Statement
We stand with protestors
At Food for Hope we stand with Black Lives Matter. We stand with protestors and the minority members of our community and country. As an organization, we are planning to raise money to donate to the cause and will keep you updated on our plans to do so. We hope that you, our members, are taking action during this essential time, and staying safe by following CDC guidelines if you choose to protest.
