Richard says:
“Without these people at CRRC, myself and family would be in serious trouble. They care about me and always ask the question on what I need and then do their best to make it happen for me.”

Barbara says:
“CRRC has helped me in my time of need. Everyone that works here is so helpful, kind, caring and compassionate. They don’t make you feel like a loser when you are down and out and need food. “

Clara says:
CRRC has helped me a lot with food. I only get $62 in food stamps and that does not buy enough food for the month.

ABOUT
The CRRC Food Pantry has grown in numbers over the last 10 years, but it has not grown in storage space. The 2,000 square foot building we inhabit doesn't hold enough for us to adequately address the needs of food insecure familites in Canyon Lake. We need to build a larger facility.
We want to be able to serve our clients in more ways than just food. We want to offer budget classes, diet and nutrition classes, and workforce applications and counseling. We need space, and equipment to move into these areas.
In 2010, we grew by 30% over 2009! While that kind of growth is unusual for us, we continue to grow by 11-13% every year. On top of prior years' growth, you can see that the same building that met the need 10 years ago is not going to meet the need in another 10 years, let alone today.
Our Need. How you can help.
We can only do this with your help.
A $250,000 matching grant, from the McKenna Foundation, will allow us to get started on this project. But only with your help. Every dollar you give, becomes two! Click on the donate button, and help us move along our timeline!
Can you give $200, or more, to help us with our building project?
We need 1200 families to give $200. But, if you can give more, you will help us reach our goal faster!
