Stretching your donation dollars
2021 NGCC Impact report
Helping Our Community.
NGCC is not a federally funded agency and operates solely on contributions from the community. We rely on the kindness and generosity of our neighbors for donations of food, money and volunteer hours so it is important for us to make every dollar count.
As an Akron Canton Regional Foodbank partner we are able to stretch donation dollars further by purchasing food and supplies at deeply discounted rates (about 8¢ per pound). Over the last two years the NGCC has been able to purchase over 92,500lbs of food for pennies on the dollar.
Here’s how the numbers shaped up:
MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN OUR COMMUNITY
A Little Help Can Make A Big Change.
The NGCC provides monthly food distribution to hundreds of families in our community. Many never imagined that they would need a pantry. Our volunteers hear their stories and their thanks – so we know that your donation of time, resources or money make an immediate positive and personal difference.
The NGCC is looking for individuals interested in helping us:
- Pack grocery bags for our clients
- Load & unload deliveries
- Process member check-ins on service days
- Shelf & restock the supply room
