You can help

When it's summer time families who are  less fortunate have difficulties finding food. Lunch box for kids program was created to help those familes in need. Donation is collected on Hope for the City website. There are two federal programs who assist these familles but unfortunately only 13 out of every 100 Minnesotan are provided with food. We need to do better than that! Hope for the city has a goal of 5,000 boxes, which carry 100,000 lunch boxes. They have joined with 5 Eyewitness news to help them reach their goal, but the most important contributer is missing and it is YOU! Make a difference and DONATE!

What is Hope For The City?

The mission of Hope for the City is to help the poor by providing food and help prevent disease. They do this by getting donations from different corportations.

This organization was founded by Megan and Dennis Doyle.

 "Hope for the City has given more than $450 million in wholesale value of goods to organizations serving those in need, saving valuable resources from our landfills, and giving hope to people in need in our local communities and beyond."

The official website: http://www.hopeforthecity.net/

This organization's business address is the following:
Hope for the City
4350 Baker Road, Suite 400
Minnetonka, MN 55343
(952) 897-7799

Hope for the city saw an advantage from corporate surplus. By taking action and getting involved with corportation they were able to get more than 450 million dollars, in which they were able to help those in need.
