Why This Fundraiser Matters

Meals by Grace began with a simple but powerful mission—to ensure that no child in our community goes to bed hungry. Today, that mission has grown into a volunteer-powered movement that delivers weekly meals to families struggling with food insecurity.

Here’s what your support helps make possible:

  • Weekly home food deliveries to families who can’t access a food pantry
  • Seasonal food programs to help families through the holidays and school breaks
  • Backpack programs for students who rely on school meals
  • Volunteers delivering more than just food—they deliver hope

When you participate in this fundraiser, you’re helping us fill refrigerators, pantries, and hearts with the nourishment and encouragement that families need to keep going. Every smoothie sold helps fund the next grocery box, the next delivery, the next smile on a child’s face when food shows up at their door.

Come Sip for a Cause

We walk alongside families who are doing their best but still falling short—what we call GAP families—and help them move from surviving to thriving.

This is an easy way to give back—just show up, place your order, and enjoy. Every smoothie, flatbread, or bowl you purchase is a step toward giving a family in our community the tools, time, and encouragement they need to rebuild.

One meal. One smoothie. One moment.

That’s all it takes to make a difference.
