The Food Group Minnesota

Every dollar you give during November becomes 
four meals with a 1:1 match from the Manitou Fund! 

Visits to Minnesota food shelves have continued to climb past the historic highs of 2020-21. The Food Group offers solutions that relieve hunger, improve access, and create a more sustainable and equitable food system. 

Your gift today will provide nutritious and culturally connected food for local communities!  

Food for today. Change for tomorrow. 

The Food Group provides hunger relief in Minnesota and western Wisconsin as inflation continues to impact food access for thousands of families with children, seniors and individuals in our local communities. We continue to experience record-breaking visits to food shelves which are set to reach a new high this year.

Your donation equips us to offer our community nutritious and culturally connected foods.

The most recent data shows that one in every nine Minnesotans is experiencing hunger or food insecurity today. That's 537,890 people and our BIPOC communities continue to experience food insecurity at higher rates than the rest of Minnesota. 

With your help, The Food Group has delivered more than 6.4 million meals in 2023. 

Let's keep the momentum going! Your contribution will go further with The Food Group's expanded statewide impact. Earlier this year, Hunger Solutions became part of The Food Group. We now serve every county in Minnesota and still parts of Western Wisconsin. Additional programs added to our work include our Minnesota Food HelpLine to help households access public benefits and local food resource options and our new Advocacy and Community Engagement department. Learn more about these new areas of our work under the "more info" tab.
