We provide emergency food, financial assistance and other services to people in need within the Silver Falls School District. Through our food pantry in 2020, we served an average of 209 households each month (about 640 people), providing them with a 3-5-day supply of food at each visit. We also provided over $107,000 in emergency financial aid to help residents of our community stay in their homes, pay utility bills, pay for prescriptions, receive dental care, and get to job interviews and other important appointments by providing bus passes and fuel vouchers.

The mission of the Chronicle Season of Sharing Fund is to create stability for individuals and families facing an unexpected crisis by providing temporary assistance for housing, critical needs and access to food. Since 1986, the Fund has raised more than $192 million to help well over 180,000 Bay Area residents. The Fund offers one-time grants to help individuals and families in crisis so they can pay for housing and emergency needs. In addition, the Fund supports food banks and provides more than $2 million each year to those who might otherwise go hungry. All of the Fund's administrative expenses are covered by the San Francisco Chronicle and the Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Fund. As a result, 100 percent of the money raised goes directly to help the individuals and families served.
