- Unlike many
organizations,
the
Society of St. Andrew
does not
charge handling fees. We
provide fresh, nutritious
food to
critical feeding agencies serving the
poor at no cost to them,
which helps them stretch
their already tight budgets.
- We
help build
Christian
community by bringing
people together in farmers'
fields or around "dumped"
loads of potatoes to work
collectively in the cause of
helping their needy
neighbors.
- We recognize the
spiritual component of
helping others and therefore
offer a variety of education
programs, Bible studies, and
seasonal devotions designed
to feed people's spiritual
hungers as they help feed
the physical hunger of
others.
- By
salvaging surplus food that
in many cases otherwise would be discarded
in landfills, we have a
positive environmental
impact.
The Society of St. Andrew
adheres to Christian principles
of good stewardship. Therefore,
more than 90% of all funds raised by
the Society of St. Andrew is
spent on the direct delivery of
food and services to the hungry.
See our
finances page
for more information in this
regard.
We operate across the nation!
