Thank you for being a Hero! Our school-based food pantries wouldn’t be possible without your support. These unique pantries, located right inside the schools, allow teens to easily shop for essentials with the help of caring volunteers. Thanks to your generosity, there are now pantries in ten schools across our four communities: Alanson, Harbor Springs, Pellston, and Petoskey!

Your donations not only provide food, toiletries, and new clothing, but they also help boost self-esteem. One teacher shared, “The Northmen Den is vital for our students in need; for some, it’s the only food they may get over the weekend.”

Now, the need is even more urgent. After devastating ice storms swept through our area, some of our students are still without power—nearly two weeks later. These families are facing not only food insecurity but also cold homes and added financial stress.

We hope you’ll continue being a Hero through your generous gifts—or consider making your first donation—to help meet these essential needs. With winter settling in and ongoing storm recovery, we could be supporting over 450 students every week.

Together, we’re making a difference. Thank you.
