An Exceptional Way to Celebrate and Honor Those Special to Us

What better way to pay tribute to a loved one or recognize a friend or colleague than by proving food to children and families in need? Operation Food Search will immediately put your donation to work solving the very real problem of hunger in our community.

In addition to the receipt you receive, the individual or family of the person you are honoring will receive a personalized letter from us, notifying them of the gift you made in their name. All gifts of $50 or more will be posted quarterly on our Memorials and Tributes web page below.

Whether celebrating a birthday or honoring the legacy of a loved one, a Memorial or Tribute Gift is one that gives twice!
