RACE FOR JOY

For instance, The Foothills Food Bank:
Currently helps 500 or more families per month; over 3200 families per year
Helps over 1,000 children annually
The need for help is growing at a rate of 10% per month
Over 980,000 pounds of food is distributed annually
Our Lady of Joy has 30 dedicated Vincentians serving our area
They provide on-call teams that will, 24 hours a day, visit those asking for assistance assessing their needs then helping with or directing them to the needed services like:
Help with rent
Vehicle maintenance or gas
