The Western News | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 14 years, 7 months AGO
The Montana Food Bank Network recently
announced that the Troy Community Baptist Church Food Pantry will
receive a chest freezer from the 2010 Partner Agency Capacity
Building Mini-Grant.
The mini-grant program is designed to
help emergency food providers partnered with the Montana Food Bank
Network increase access to food and nutrition for low-income
residents by increasing their capacity.
With the freezer, the church’s food
pantry will improve its ability to receive and store food from the
network and other sources.
The mini-grant program was made
possible through funds from the Montana Department of Public Health
and Human Services. The Montana Food Bank is a statewide nonprofit
anti-hunger organization based in Missoula.
