FoodMobile ~

A FoodMobile will go wherever there are people in need and communities willing to serve. Rural areas, churches, parks, housing authorities and migrant worker farms are some of the destinations of these wonderful FoodMobiles.

The total cost of a FoodMobile product delivery and distribution is $1,250, or roughly 1/10th of the value of the food product delivered to each community. Agencies support the FoodMobile by contributing $250 per delivery. Individual or organizational donations are accepted to sponsor the remaining $1,000 cost for each FoodMobile community delivery.
