Nourish Pierce County

February 2025 Newsletter

Hello Ken,


This February, in honor of National Canned Food Month we have been raising funds to provide canned food to our neighbors in need. Thanks to the generosity of many, we are 20% of the way to our $5,000 goal!


Every month, thousands of families rely on food banks to meet their nutritional needs, and together, we can make a powerful difference in their lives. Canned goods are a huge part of meeting that need. Not only are the nutritious and shelf-stable, but they also provide essential meals for families, especially during times of crisis. This February, we are raising funds for monthly canned food purchases throughout the year, and we need your help!


By becoming a monthly donor, you’ll help us purchase and distribute the canned food that is so desperately needed. Your recurring gift will ensure that the shelves remain stocked year-round.


Here’s how you can help:

  • $15/month can provide 1 case of nutritious food.
  • $38/month can put 50 cans of food on food bank shelves.
  • $85/month provides canned food to a family of 4 for a year

Volunteer Spotlight


If you have been to Nourish's Graham food bank in the past few months you will have seen the incredible progress of a new mural. This mural was painted by one of our volunteers, high school junior Lily, who started volunteering with Nourish last summer with her grandma.


"I was inspired by the idea that the food bank is just for giving. I wanted to represent everybody because we all just live in one big world, all of us together, that's it."

In January, Nourish volunteers served over 3,200 hours at our food banks!
