Together, we do more.

Will you join us on this December 1st, for #GivingTuesday, and help us feed our families in Creighton's communities? 

1 in 5 children struggle with hunger in Arizona. With the arrival of COVID-19, our communities were beset by challenges with getting food, and increasing hunger in the face of job losses and workplace disruptions.  Today, we are moving nearly 50 tons of food a month into the hands of families throughout Creighton and Balsz communities - more than 200 tons of total food has already been distributed since starting this unplanned work in April.  But we can't do it without your help - collectively, almost 300 donors have come together to support families in need through small grassroots donations, and have helped secure the hearts of other partners that make all of this work possible. Will you join us?  Will you help us gather food for our families for the holidays? Together, we build a better Creighton, where no kid will be hungry.

As little as $5 feeds a kid for a week in our food boxes.  But don't forget, there is no better time than now to use your 2020 Qualified Charitable Organization tax credit.  A married couple can give as much as $800, and a single filer $400, and have that gift come back as an Arizona Tax Credit as soon as you file your taxes.  Give, file, and receive.  Every dollar this year will be feeding our Creighton and Balsz families.

P.S. Many of you have generously helped feed families already, since the arrival of COVID this past March.  We expect our community to continue struggling with food scarcity and hunger for months to come, and we've laid plans to keep up our food support through next June.  Your continuing support will help us get there.  Thank you!
