June is National Dairy Month 🥛 Milk is one of the most requested, yet hardest-to-access items in the food bank system. That’s why we work to provide it to our neighbors as often as possible. With support from partners Florida Milk, we’re able to get fresh milk into the hands of families across our region, helping provide the protein, calcium, and nutrients that matter every day. We’re grateful for partners who help make this possible. #dairyfarming #FloridaDairyFarmers #milk #dairymonth #SWFL
Meet Lura Lee. She has been receiving food for herself and her pet from one of our pantry partners since she was diagnosed with cancer and could no longer work. It’s always meaningful to share how this work is growing and evolving to better serve our community. Huge thanks to Seabreeze Communications for their continued partnership and for highlighting our new Hunger Action Center in their latest issue. Special thanks to Helping Hands Food Pantry for their partnership. Take a look: fortmyersliving.com/2026/05/17/new-harry-chapin-hunger-action-center-will-provide-pet-food/ #community #swfl #hcfbswfl
