Double Your Gift Now & Feed More Neighbors

“It’s not just homeless people, it’s regular people like me.”

A neighbor told us that when we asked about the struggle to put food on the table. Nearly six in ten of the households we surveyed work at least part-time and still need our help.

Here in northern Arizona, the squeeze is coming from every side – at the grocery store, the gas pump, and every month when the rent or mortgage is due. Now many of our neighbors have lost SNAP benefits, and some are worried about losing healthcare coverage in 2027. For families already stretching every dollar, each of those losses means harder choices at the kitchen table.

More neighbors are asking for help, and we’re answering the call to feed more neighbors across Northern Arizona. Flagstaff Family Food Center broke its single-day service record six times in 2025. Today we serve more than 42,000 neighbors across 27,000 square miles.

This winter, I’m asking you to bring warmth to neighbors who are working hard and still falling short. And right now, your gift will go twice as far. In honor of our 35th anniversary, two generous donors, Robin and Terence Roche, are matching every gift made by December 31, dollar for dollar, up to $35,000.

• $50 becomes $100 and feeds two working families for a week.
• $125 becomes $250 and fills a family’s table from Thanksgiving to New Year’s.
• $250 becomes $500 and helps stock Louie’s Cupboard, so students at Northern Arizona University don’t have to choose between class and groceries.
• $500 becomes $1,000 and brings healthy groceries to a homebound neighbor from now until spring.

Feed More Neighbors

Every gift supports the whole Food Center, wherever the need is greatest, whether that’s in our Kitchen, our weekly neighborhood distributions, or at our warehouse.

And here’s another incentive to give: Donations to Flagstaff Family Food Center are eligible for the Arizona Charitable Tax Credit. This is a tax credit – not a deduction – that reduces your state tax liability dollar-for-dollar, up to $506 for single filers and $1,009 for married couples filing jointly.

Even better, the tax credit doesn’t require you to itemize. Please consult your tax adviser for details. 

This is the season for gratitude and giving, and you have real power to lighten the load for your neighbors. Your generosity can help a family spend this winter planning holiday meals instead of worrying about whether there will be enough. With a match that doubles your impact and a tax credit that gives something back to you, there has never been a better time to donate.
