September 5, 2024

Lowcountry Food Bank Foundation announced a donation to Lowcountry Food Bank. This gift of $38,006 will be used where the Food Bank needs it most to support feeding programs, equipment purchases, special projects, agency expansions or anything that helps grow the work of Lowcountry Food Bank.

“Lowcountry Food Bank Foundation is delighted to commemorate Hunger Action Day 2024 with our third annual and largest donation to Lowcountry Food Bank,” said Bob Kahle, Board Chair of Lowcountry Food Bank Foundation. “Our investment in the work of Lowcountry Food Bank will help ensure they have the resources they need to help neighbors who experience food insecurity in the 10 coastal counties of South Carolina. This donation would not be possible without our supporters who are investing in the future!”

Lowcountry Food Bank Foundation’s mission is to provide a consistent and sustainable source of funding to support Lowcountry Food Bank. Supporters can participate this Hunger Action Day by investing in the Lowcountry Food Bank Foundation today or by leaving a legacy with a planned gift to provide for our neighbors now and in the future.
