🎭 IT’S ALMOST MARDI GRAS TIME! 🎭

The Red Door Food Pantry has faced unique challenges in recent years. Rising inflation and reduced incomes have increased food insecurity, meaning more households in our community need help than ever before.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, sponsors, and gala attendees, your support goes a long way in fighting hunger in Bartow County. In 2024, we were able to serve:

Households: 7,822

Patrons: 22,883

Kids (0-17): 6,991

Seniors (60+): 4,670

Pounds of Food Distributed: 289,256

Friendship Table Meals: 3,900

Every dollar makes a real impact:

$1 = 3 meals

$25 = 75 meals / 150 lbs of food

$50 = 150 meals / 300 lbs of food

$100 = 300 meals / 600 lbs of food

$500 = 1,500 meals / 3,000 lbs of food

The generosity shown at our Mardi Gras Gala is how we’ve been able to expand programs, reach more families, and continue our mission of ending hunger year after year. We could not accomplish this without the support of our amazing sponsors, who help provide the resources needed to grow quickly and meet community needs.

All proceeds benefit the Red Door Food Pantry and help us provide food, hope, and dignity to neighbors in Bartow County.
