United Way Northumberland is committed to moving people from poverty to possibility. The traditional Northumberland EATS food voucher program ended but there have been multiple requests to bring back some additional supports to clients who are facing food insecurity.
We have developed a new grocery card/food hamper program and we are looking for partner agencies to help distribute cards to their clients who are facing food, housing and/or income insecurities. The grocery card/food hamper purchase is a maximum of $25.00 for a single person and $50.00 for a family, to a maximum of $750.00 in total.
