Monthly Grocery Program

In March, when quarantine hit, the large majority of our families lost their income. Imagine living on $15,000 a year and then losing that! How would YOU feed your family, keep a roof over your head and pay bills? What would YOU do?

So we jumped in and provided food for families. We immediately recognized the best way to help was continuing to do what we do best, AND also, focusing on the most basic need: food. We created our Grocery Program where, once a month, we meet our families at Smart and Final and give them $300 dollars to buy food. What I love so much is that it 1) gives our families the autonomy and flexibility to shop for themselves, and 2) you see the families shopping together, catching up, creating a feeling of community that has been so lost in the pandemic.

Our goal is to sustain the Monthly Grocery Program through June 2021.

Any amount helps and goes directly towards groceries for our Scholars and their families. With a donation today, all from the comfort of your own home you'll be able to provide stability to an OP family in need.

Thank you for your help and please share the giving page with your family and friends!
