Food & In-Kind Giving
Much of the food we share comes from donations from individuals and groups in our community. Throughout the year, we rely on others to bring food staples, holiday basics and even personal care items that are offered to our client families.
Monetary Donations
Circle of Concern’s largest program expenses are the fresh, perishable foods that we purchase and short-term, financial assistance for struggling families. In fact, 85 cents of every dollar we receive directly supports our clients through our client choice food pantry and other programs. Your financial gifts make it possible for us to meet these critical needs.
Planned & Estate Giving
You can build a legacy of support for our neighbors in need by including Circle of Concern in your planned and estate giving. Gifts given through a planned strategy can support Circle’s mission, while also providing financial and tax benefits to you and your family.
Volunteer
Time is a precious gift. Volunteers sharing their time and their talents are integral to Circle’s work. With a small full-time staff, we rely on volunteers to accomplish our mission, especially working directly with our clients to share groceries from the food pantry or supporting our other client programs.
