Annual Conference Service Project

About FACT

Feeding Area Children Together (FACT) was founded by 3 school-aged moms and a dad in Central Minnesota. FACT's main goal is to feed as many children as they can in need - identifying those who need meals on weekends when school is not in session.

Here in Central Minnesota, 1 in every 5 students do not know where their next meal will come from. Going hungry as a child causes and increased risk of learning and behavioral challenges. At FACT, they bridge the gap for students when school is not in session through these services:

  1. FACT PACKS: Distributed before weekends and breaks, these packs provide full meals and high-quality snacks.
  2. FACT Pantries: Housed within the area schools, they provide shelf-stable foo for both students and families.
  3. Break Boxes: Filled with fresh food and pantry staples, these boxes feed families for longer school breaks, lasting one week or longer.
