Open Your Heart to the Hungry and Homeless and Hunger Solutions, now a part of The Food Group are excited to announce the launch of the 15th annual Open Your Heart Summer Challenge grant. This grant opportunity provides participating food shelves in Minnesota with a matched grant proportional to the food shelves' fundraising activities throughout the month of July.
The persistent economic difficulties brought on by the pandemic and rising inflation have led to a continued dependence on food shelves for many households to fulfill their nutritional requirements. In 2023, the need for resources from food shelves surged significantly as further aid programs came to an end and food costs climbed. Consequently, food shelves are increasingly counting on the assistance from organizations like Open Your Heart to aid individuals facing hunger challenges. This funding helps raise awareness of hunger and helps food shelves raise additional funding during slower summer months when donations are down to continue meeting the needs of their local communities

Because we learn and serve better in a community full of unique experiences, insights, and opinions; MFS welcomes a diverse and inclusive group of staff, volunteers, and board members. MFS remains dedicated to excellent service and a safe environment for all.
Hunger relief efforts are made possible through the financial and food support donations from many individuals, organizations, civic groups, businesses, faith partners, and food-rescue partners across McLeod County and greater Minnesota.
