Challenge grant not to exceed $75,000 payable at $2 for every $1 raised by the Pantry through December 31, 2016
The Dunham Fund will award $2 for every $1 raised by the Pantry up to $75,000 for its capital project “Hunger Relief through Capacity Expansion.”
The Pantry expansion project will provide outdoor parking lot lighting for evening food distribution for working families, double the number of vehicle spaces in the current parking lot, and greatly reduce safety concerns that arise from parking overflow problems during peak food distribution hours. The parking expansion is necessitated by the 150 to 200 new families who have sought food assistance every month since the Pantry moved to its new location on Jericho Road.
