Help us raise $50,000 to fight hunger in the community!
Joyce Uptown Foodshelf is a people-centered, no-questions-asked food shelf operating in the heart of Uptown since 1969.
In an average month Joyce serves 1,700 people from 450 households with over 55,000 lbs. of food. Since the start of the 2022, we have seen unprecedented growth in the number of people we serve, nearly doubling the amount of food that goes out into our community. Soaring inflation rates have created a much higher demand for access to food in the community and has strained our budget for food purchasing. We have responded to the needs of a growing demographic by leaning in and creating a welcoming space for all, while also trying to manage our own rising food costs.
JUFS Harvest Walk for Hunger is a family-oriented, FREE community fundraising event, open to the public on the Minneapolis Greenway. The event will be held, rain or shine, on Saturday, October 15th from 9AM-12PM on the Minneapolis Greenway entrance at 3226 W. Lake St, Minneapolis, MN.
Join partners, faith groups, community members, Foodshelf participants, supporters, and friends of Joyce Uptown Foodshelf to help us reach our fundraising goal of $50,000 to broaden our work in Uptown and surrounding Minneapolis communities.
