Our vision
A hunger-free Hancock County.
Reliable nourishment can help children feel ready to learn, grow, and take part in everyday life. FFT is working toward a future where families know their community stands beside them.
Discover our missionThe next chapter
More food for children, families, and weekends beyond.
Through an expanded partnership with River Bend Food Bank, FFT is transitioning from individual weekend meal bags to school-based food pantries. The new model builds on more than a decade of trusted service while reaching the whole family.
School-based access
Food pantries bring practical support into the school communities families already know.
Family-sized staples
Families can access cereal, peanut butter, pasta, canned goods, and other nourishing groceries.
Every dollar goes further
River Bend inventory and FFT-purchased supplemental foods work together to meet local needs.
Why it matters
When children are nourished, our whole community can flourish.
