Food shelf use in our region has increased 30% with 32% more children receiving assistance and 18% more senior citizens. Thanks to your volunteer, food, and financial contributions we have been able to meet our increasing demand. In 2008 we rescued a record 2.9 million pounds of food or enough food for 2.4 million meals which reached over 40,000 people in need. Did you know? Food shelves in our region are serving 30% more people; 32% more children and 18% more senior citizens. And we couldn’t have done it without you! As we mark our 25th Anniversary we’d like to invite you to “Make a Difference” in the next 25 days. Here’s what we’d like you to do: n You helped us distribute a record 2.9 million pounds of food in 2008 – enough food for 2.4 million meals n Your volunteer support resulted in 5,823 hours of service and saved us over $64,000 in expense Donate $25.00 Your gift will allow us to rescue and distribute $250 worth of food or enough food for 125 meals.

Our early beginnings back in 1984 were the result of the recession which hit especially hard in our Iron Range communities. Thousands of mine workers were laid off and their families were in need of our food assistance. Although we only served 14 Arrowhead food shelves at the time we provided a critical service to families in need. Today, we are rescuing millions of pounds of food each year, providing a critical service to over 140 nonprofit programs, and impacting the lives of over 40,000 people in need. We are also building capacity with the construction of our facility addition and are preparing to rescue even more food in the years to come. As we mark our 25th Anniversary I’d like to personally invite you to “Make a Difference” in the next 25 days and 25 years. Your past support is what has allowed us to accomplish our remarkable goals and your future support is what will get us through the challenging times ahead. Director’s DESK Donor Perspective “I feel that those of us who have the resources to help are able to build stronger communities if we give a helping hand to those less fortunate. I feel that I really make a difference when I donate my time and money to the food bank.” Board of Directors Robyn Cadigan, Board Chair Julie Feiring, Board Vice Chair Judi VanDell, Treasurer Myrna Wells-Ulland, Secretary Jeff Anderson Sarah Benning Mark Branovan John Gasele Mike Gay Vinod Gupta Dan Hartman Monica Hendrickson Matthew Miner Roger Skraba Briana Von Elbe Staff Shaye Moris Executive Director Kevin Bryant Operations Director Gail Marshik Agency/Donor Relations Coordinator Sandy McKay MAC and NAPS Coordinator Deanna Corry Marketing & Communications Coordinator Sarah Bourcy Bookkeeper/Volunteer Coordinator Craig Ahrens Warehouse Manager Chad Follmer Warehouse Associate Dennis Hagen Warehouse Associate Ann Stires Food Rescue Driver John Kleppe Food Rescue Driver Art, Volunteer and Contributor Gary Sypnieski Delivery Driver We are more than half way to our $1.6 million goal but still need your support. Our old and new facilities have now been joined together and we are starting the extensive interior reconfiguration of our building. Our hope is to have our building complete by early summer. If you are able to give $5, $10, $25 or more – your support will have great impact on our project.
