Angel Food Ministries
is a non-profit, non-denominational organization dedicated to
providing grocery relief and financial support to communities
throughout the United States. The program began in 1994 with 34
families in Monroe, Georgia (between Atlanta and Athens), and has
grown to serve hundreds of thousands of families every month across
35 states. Angel Food Ministries crosses denominational lines and
has spread the good news of the gospel of Christ through salvation
tracts that are placed in each food order.
Blessings by the box
Angel Food is available in a
quantity that can fit into a medium-sized box at $30 per unit. Each
month's menu is different than the previous month and consists of
both fresh and frozen items with an average retail value of
approximately $60. Comparison shopping has been done across the
country in various communities using a wide range of retail grocery
stores and has resulted in the same food items costing from between
$42 and $78.
Generally, one unit of food
assists in feeding a family of four for about one week or a single
senior citizen for almost a month. The food is all the same high
quality one could purchase at a grocery store. There are no
second-hand items, no damaged or out-dated goods, no dented cans
without labels, no day-old breads and no produce that is almost too
ripe.
Also offered are specialty
boxes such as steaks, chicken and pork. Many participants in this
bonus program appreciate the expanded choices. Additionally, there
is no limit to the number of units or bonus foods an individual can
receive, and there are no applications to complete or qualifications
to which participants must adhere. Angel Food Ministries also
participates in the U.S. Food Stamp program, using the Off-Line Food
Stamp Voucher system.
It's both a Bargain and a
Blessing!
