Angel Food Ministries and Community Investors Incorporated Offers a Helping Hand for Families
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.
There are no qualifications, minimums, income
restrictions, or applications.
The average monthly government allowance of Food Stamps often Yields less than three weeks worth of groceries. This frequently leads to recipients making cheaper, unhealthier food choices. Angel Food's program can stretch thoses Food Stamps to six even seven weeks worth of good food for your home.
Who qualifies?
Everyone, there are no applications or qualifications to order Angel Food.
Where does the food come from?
Our food is “restaurant grade” meats, frozen vegetables, fruits, dairy products, etc. which we acquire through our involvement with only the best producers/vendors of high quality, “name brand” foods. Never “seconds” or “day old” type products are involved.
Can we receive more than one unit or special?
Yes, you can order as many regular units and specials as you would like.
Where do I order and pick up my food?
