One of our Community Kitchen freezers recently went down, and unfortunately, we lost a significant amount of frozen meat and ingredients that had been purchased and donated specifically for upcoming meal preparation.

For an organization that works hard to stretch every dollar and every donation as far as possible, this is a major loss.

We now have an unexpected need to:

Replace the freezer
Replace many pounds of lost meat and meal-prep ingredients
Purchase Wi-Fi-enabled freezer alarms so we can be notified immediately if a freezer temperature rises or a unit stops working

Our goal is to raise $5,000 to help Community Kitchen of Republic recover from this loss and put safeguards in place to help prevent it from happening again.

$5,000 is a big goal, but so is the need we are working to meet every week.

The food stored in our freezers becomes meals for individuals, families, seniors, and neighbors throughout our community who need a little extra help. Replacing what was lost means replacing future meals—and making sure our kitchen is prepared to continue serving without interruption.

We know this community has rallied around the Community Kitchen time and time again, and we are asking for your help once more.

Whether you can give $10, $25, $50, $100, or help us share this campaign, every contribution gets us closer to replacing what was lost and continuing to feed our neighbors.

Help us rebuild our freezer supply, protect future donations, and most importantly, continue helping those in need right here in our community.

Our goal: $5,000.
Our mission: Keep feeding our community. ❤️
