Fundraiser For Food Insecure Families-Bunco for Owasso Community Resources
Details
## OCR's End-of-Year Campaign
Join OCR in providing help and hope to those facing food insecurity!
In 2024, Owasso Community Resources has been serving 30% more individuals, and our expenses have significantly increased due to a shortage of free USDA food. Our goal is to raise $15,000 in the last quarter of 2024 to cover the excess in our food budget. Please consider making an End-of-Year gift to support OCR as we care for our community.
Website: owassohelps.org
Here’s how your donation can make an impact:
- $30 will buy 158 pounds of frozen meat.
- $50 will buy 32 jars of peanut butter.
- $100 will buy 315 snack bags for our Food Pantry Program.
- $1,000 will provide approximately 230 households with frozen meat, eggs, a pizza, a snack bag, and 2 rolls of toilet paper from our Food Pantry Program, which clients can access every 30 days.
We serve an average of 471 households each month through our Food Pantry Program, and over 1,055 individuals benefit from our Food Programs each week. OCR distributes around 185,000 pounds of donated food every quarter, with nearly half being fresh produce.
We are seeking donors at the following levels for our campaign:
- 1 donor at $5,000
- 5 donors at $1,000
- 25 donors at $100
- 50 donors at $50
Additionally, we are looking for 30 donors to commit to giving $30 per month, with the hope that at least 15 of those donors will make a one-time gift of $360 this year.
