- 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!
