Mission Statement
Feed My People's mission is to show God's love and compassion to all His people, particularly His people in need. We serve economically disadvantaged individuals and families primarily in St. Louis County and Jefferson County, Missouri, but our range extends throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area, and we serve without regard to religion or ethnicity.
About This Cause
All those we serve live at or below federal poverty guidelines, or have recently experienced a life crisis requiring immediate assistance (floods, tornadoes); services are offered on both an emergency and long-term basis. Our program services help seniors, infants, children, immigrants, the disabled, the unemployed and the homeless. We offer basic sustenance (food, clothing, personal care items, school supplies, assistance with heating and cooling needs), employment counseling, and referrals to numerous services. In 2016, we provided $5.5 million in emergency and long-term assistance to more than 45,000 people. Jefferson County and south St. Louis County, where our two Food Pantries/Help Centers are located, are traditionally underserved areas in Missouri. Feed My People is the only Food Pantry and Help Center in these areas able to provide consistent and reliable distribution hours for food, clothing, and personal care items, as well as for multiple referral services. We anticipate that in 2017 our program services will supply over 50,000 poverty-stricken individuals with food, clothing, personal care items and other assistance. Feed My People is a Better Business Bureau Accredited Charity; we have also been awarded the Independent Charities of America Seal of Excellence, and we have a four star rating from Charity Navigator
