MILFORD – Milford Food Bank announced an opportunity for the community to make an even bigger impact in the fight against food insecurity.
Thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor, all contributions made to Milford Food Bank’s capital campaign will be matched dollar for dollar up to $25,000, from now until March 28. This means that every donation made to the campaign will be doubled with the potential to raise $50,000 toward the food bank’s capital campaign, according to a provided news release.
Milford Food Bank’s capital campaign is raising funds for the construction of a new, larger facility. This new facility will not only provide expanded storage but will also include office space and an upgraded food packaging room to help the food bank significantly increase its capacity to serve those in need. Groundbreaking for the new building is scheduled for later this year, marking a significant step forward in the organization’s mission.
If you’ve been considering donating to Milford Food Bank, now is the perfect time to give, as your generosity will go twice as far in creating positive change, the news release states.
“Whether you give $5, $50, or $500 toward our campaign, in this ‘Match for MFB’ window, your contribution will be doubled, helping us move closer to our goal of raising $1 million for the capital campaign,” said Angie Deak, development manager of Milford Food Bank.
