We Are Excited to Announce Resumption of
Service Beginning January 2012
Food is available in a quantity that can
fit into a medium-sized box for only $35. 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 $50. 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. The Manna Ministries also participates in the U.S.
Food Stamp program, using the Off-Line Food Stamp Voucher
system. |
