Program accomplishments

• EMERGENCY FOOD ASSISTANCE - IMPACT SERVES UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES IN THE TUCSON BASIN: PRIMARILY NW TUCSON, MARANA, ORO VALLEY, CATALINA, AND SE PINAL COUNTY, ESPECIALLY IN THE COPPER CORRIDOR. WE ALSO SERVE ANY SOUTHERN AZ CLIENT REFERRED TO US THROUGH ANOTHER TUCSON NON-PROFIT, LOCAL AGENCY, OR AREA CASE WORKER. THROUGH OUR AGENCY RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE UNTIED AND COMMUNITY FOOD BANKS, WE SERVE ANY LOW TO MODERATE INCOME PERSON WHO QUALIFIES UNDER DES FOR USDA FOOD DISTRIBUTION FROM SEVEN COUNTIES: PIMA, PINAL, COCHISE, GILA, GRAHAM, GREENLEE AND SANTA CRUZ. PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING AN EMERGENCY FOOD SHORTAGE BUT NOT QUALIFIED THROUGH THE FEDERAL PROGRAM MAY STILL RECEIVE NON-USDA FOOD FROM IMPACT, THANKS TO DONATIONS FROM OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS. WE ALSO SERVE PEOPLE PASSING THROUGH OUR AREA WHO COME FROM OTHER REGIONS IN AZ OR ARE TRAVELING THROUGH TO OTHER STATES, AND NEED FOOD ALONG THEIR JOURNEY. THE PEOPLE WE SERVE REGULARLY, LIVE IN AREAS WHICH ARE PREDOMINANTLY RURAL, AND ARE GENERALLY ALL LOW TO MODERATE INCOME HOUSEHOLDS. DEMAND FOR SERVICES IN THESE AREAS CONTINUED TO GROW THIS PAST YEAR DUE TO INCREASED ECONOMIC PRESSURES AND OFTEN BECAUSE OF MEDICAL SETBACKS THAT EFFECT THEIR AVAILABLE INCOME. MUCH OF THE GROWTH SEEMED TO BE IN OUR PINAL CLIENTELE, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THE COPPER CORRIDOR REGION IS LOSING MANY STANDARD RESOURCES. THERE ARE NO LONGER BASIC FULL-SERVICE GROCERY STORES, BANKS OR OTHER CORPORATE RETAIL STORES. RESIDENTS RELY ON GAS STATION CONVENIENCE STORES AND DOLLAR GENERALS. HEALTHY FOOD ACCESS IS MINIMAL. PINAL COUNTY IS THE FASTEST GROWING US COUNTY WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI, AND WE ARE PROVIDING BONUS COMMODITIES FOOD SERVICE TO MORE THAN 190 LOWEST OF INCOME PINAL SENIORS, DELIVERING TO MANY WHO HAVE NO TRANSPORTATION AT ALL. WE EXPECT TO SEE CONSISTENT GROWTH IN COMMUNITY NEEDS IN THE FUTURE, AS MORE PEOPLE LEARN ABOUT IMPACT OF SOAZ, THE ECONOMY IS LESS STABLE, COST OF LIVING IS ON THE RISE, AND PEOPLE CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO AZ. DURING THE FISCAL YEAR, OUR FOOD BANK SERVED 5684 UNDUPLICATED INDIVIDUALS (UP FROM 5159 LAST FY). THESE PEOPLE CAME FROM 1864 UNDUPLICATED HOUSEHOLDS (115 MORE THAN THE PREVIOUS YEAR) OF DIVERSE AGES, RACE AND ETHNICITY. PEOPLE IN PIMA COUNTY REPORT TO US THEY DRIVE UP TO CATALINA FROM ALL OVER TUCSON EVEN THOUGH THERE IS EMERGENCY FOOD ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE CLOSER TO THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS BECAUSE OUR FOOD DISTRIBUTION IS BETTER IN QUALITY AND VOLUME, AND OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS FAR SUPERIOR, ESPECIALLY IN THE WAY WE TREAT ALL OUR CLIENTS, WITH DIGNITY AND RESPECT. THIS YEAR, THE VALUE OF FOOD WE PROVIDED WAS OVER 1.969MM. FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES AS WELL AS MEATS AND DAIRY TO SUPPLEMENT OUR SHELF STABLE DISTRIBUTION HELP OUR CLIENTS LIVE HEALTHIER LIVES THROUGH BETTER NUTRITION AND REDUCED FINANCIAL AND HUNGER STRESS. ON AVERAGE WE DISTRIBUTE 50,000 POUNDS OF FOOD EACH MONTH. WE CONTINUE TO PROVIDE OUR IMPACT FOOD BAG OF PANTRY ITEMS THAT FIT THE USDA RECOMMENDED ITEMS, THANKS TO GENEROUS SUPPORT FROM COMMUNITY BUSINESSES AND INDIVIDUALS. ALL INBOUND DONATION ITEMS ARE WEIGHED, SORTED, LOGGED INTO A DATABASE FOR RECORD KEEPING, CHECKED FOR FOOD SAFETY AND PROPERLY STORED. THE AVERAGE DEMAND HAS US SERVING ABOUT 800 FAMILIES EACH MONTH, WITH NEW PIMA AND PINAL RESIDENTS ENROLLING REGULARLY. NOT ALL FAMILIES COME IN EVERY MONTH. OUR GENEROUS, THOUGHTFUL CLIENTELE DO NOT PARTICIPATE IF THEY FEEL THERE IS ANOTHER FAMILY STRUGGLING MORE; BUT WE ENCOURAGE ALL TO COME GET FOOD, TO BOLSTER THEIR FOOD AVAILABILITY AND AS A WAY TO STRETCH THEIR EARNED INCOME SO THEY CAN PURCHASE OTHER NECESSITIES. WE ARE FORTUNATE TO HAVE LONG-TERM PARTNERSHIPS OF MANY AREA GROCERY STORES SUCH AS FRY'S, SAFEWAY, TARGET, WALMART, WHOLE FOODS, TRADER JOES, BASHAS', AND OF MANY SMALL BUSINESSES BAKERIES AND CHAINS. THEY ALL PROVIDED US WITH FRESH PRODUCE, DAIRY, EGGS, MEAT, AND OTHER PERISHABLE FOODS, AS WELL AS SPECIAL PRICING WHEN WE HAVE TO BUY BULK. A LARGE CORPS OF TRAINED VOLUNTEERS PICKS UP FROM MARKETS EVERY DAY, INCLUDING SATURDAY TO ENSURE WE HAVE THE INVENTORY NEEDED TO FEED OUR GROWING ENROLLMENT. WE ARE THANKFUL FOR THEIR PARTNERSHIPS WHICH ALLOW US TO PROVIDE A ROBUST DISTRIBUTION. WE CONTINUE OUR EXCITING RELATIONSHIP WITH UA BIOSPHERE 2 WHO IS GROWING PRODUCE FOR OUR FOOD BANK; HEADS OF LETTUCE, KALE, SPINACH AND OTHER LEAFY GREENS, IN A CONVERTED OCEAN CARGO CONTAINER, WITH VERY LITTLE WATER USE AND NO PESTICIDES. OUR VOLUNTEERS PICK UP ABOUT TEN LARGE TUBS OF THIS PRODUCE WEEKLY. IT TASTES AMAZING, AND ALL THE CLIENTS LOVE BEING THE BENEFICIARIES OF THIS COLLABORATION. OUR FOOD BANK, SET UP IN A MODULAR BUILDING ON OUR SITE, INCLUDES A LARGE SHOPPING AREA TO ALLOW CLIENTS TO SELF-SELECT MANY OF THEIR FOOD ITEMS. WE ARE ALWAYS VERY EXCITED TO OFFER THIS PERSONALIZED EXPERIENCE FOR OUR CLIENTS. IT IS A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE SPACE FOR OUR PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS WHO HAVE GIVEN IT RAVE REVIEWS; AND WE HAVE HAD ARCHITECTURAL PLANS DRAWN UP TO SOMEDAY EXPAND OUR MAIN BUILDING TO FILL OUR PROPERTY FOOTPRINT AND HOUSE A LARGER FOOD BANK THAT WILL LOOK LIKE A STANDARD MARKET, AND WHERE CLIENTS WILL BE ABLE TO SELF-SELECT ALL THEIR OWN FOOD. THIS WILL BE A MAJOR PROJECT THAT TAKES SOME TIME TO IMPLEMENT, BUT WE ARE EXCITED TO CONTINUE PLANS TO BRING SUCH AN INNOVATIVE FOOD BANK EXPERIENCE TO OUR REGION IN THE FUTURE. WE UTILIZE THE AZ DES FOOD BANK DATABASE SYSTEM CALLED LINK2FEED AND HAVE A LARGE NUMBER OF TRAINED VOLUNTEERS WHO ENTER DATA DAILY AS FOOD GOES OUT. BOTH PIMA AND PINAL COUNTIES ARE ON THE SYSTEM, EACH WITH THEIR OWN COUNTY PORTAL, AND WE CAN ACCESS INFORMATION FOR OTHER COUNTIES AS NEEDED; SO ALL OUR CLIENT DISTRIBUTIONS ARE TRACKED IN THE SAME MANNER, AND A VARIETY OF REPORTS ARE AVAILABLE FOR PROGRAM EVALUATION AND TRACKING. WE GREW OUR MIMS PROGRAM (MIGHTY IMPACT MEALS) TO BETTER SUPPORT FAMILIES WITH YOUNG CHILDREN WHO WERE PARTICULARLY STRUGGLING TO KEEP ENOUGH FOOD ON THE TABLE WHEN SCHOOL WAS NOT IN SESSION. MANY FAMILIES RELY ON THE SCHOOL LUNCH AND BREAKFAST PROGRAM, AND EXPERIENCE SEVERE FOOD INSECURITY OVER THE SUMMER AND SHORTER SEASONAL BREAKS. WE NOW GIVE TWO AREA SCHOOLS, WITH A HIGH PERCENTAGE OF LOW-INCOME FAMILIES, A TOTAL OF 40 MEMBERSHIP CARDS TO OUR MIMS PROGRAM. SCHOOL COUNSELORS SELECT THE FAMILIES THAT MOST NEED THE SUPPORT, AND WE PROVIDE BOXES OF GROCERIES EACH WEEK SCHOOL IS OUT TO ENSURE THE FAMILIES CAN FEED EVERYONE IN THE HOUSEHOLD AT LEAST TWO OR THREE ROBUST BREAKFASTS, LUNCHES AND DINNERS. WE ALSO PROVIDE HEALTHY SNACK FOODS AND OTHER SUPPLEMENTS FOR THE WHOLE HOUSEHOLD, NOT JUST THE CHILDREN. ON OCCASION, FAMILY CRAFT OR GAME ACTIVITIES ARE ALSO INCLUDED, ALONG WITH FREE TICKETS FOR SWIMMING AT THE LOCAL COMMUNITY POOL, AND INFORMATION ABOUT FREE COMMUNITY EVENTS THAT FAMILIES MAY ENJOY TOGETHER SUCH AS MOVIES OR MUSIC IN THE AREA PARKS. THIS YEAR WE ENROLLED NEW MIMS FAMILIES. THE PROGRAM WAS AVAILABLE EACH WEEK SCHOOL WAS OUT; AND WITH THE ADDED FOOD INTAKE, WE WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE THEM BONUS ITEMS. SOME FAMILIES CAME IN OCCASIONALLY, AS THEY NEEDED TO CARPOOL OR SEND PROXIES TO PICK UP THEIR FOOD. TYPICAL ISSUES WERE SHORTAGE OF TIME AND/OR FUEL TO TRAVEL TO IMPACT. WE ADDED AN OPTION TO HAVE US DELIVER WEEKLY KITS DURING THE SUMMER TO ONE OF THE MORE RURAL SCHOOLS WHERE TRANSPORTATION WAS A PARTICULARLY TOUGH CHALLENGE ACROSS THEIR PARTICIPATION GROUP. VOLUNTEERS HELPED GET THE FOOD TO FAMILIES AS NEEDED. OVERALL, PEOPLE HAD BETTER ACCESS TO FOOD AND ATE MORE NUTRITIONALLY. WE WORKED DILIGENTLY TO REDUCE HUNGER IN OUR COMMUNITIES, AND TO PROVIDE NUTRITIONAL EDUCATION TO HELP THEM MAKE BETTER FOOD CHOICES AND IMPROVE THEIR HEALTH. MIMS FAMILIES RECEIVED RECIPES WITH THEIR BOXES SO THEY COULD LEARN TO COOK WITH, AND FOR, THEIR FAMILIES, AS WELL AS TRY NEW FOODS AND FOOD COMBINATIONS. TOILETRIES WERE ALSO SUPPLIED TO ALL FAMILIES THROUGH THE FOOD BANK, INCLUDING PERSONAL HYGIENE ITEMS AS WELL AS HOUSEHOLD NEEDS LIKE TOILET PAPER, PAPER TOWELS, LAUNDRY DETERGENT AND OTHER PRODUCTS THAT CANNOT BE PURCHASED WITH FOOD STAMPS. HOMELESS CLIENTS ALSO RECEIVED TRAVEL SIZED PACKETS OF TOILETRIES REGULARLY, SO THEY HAD CONSISTENT ACCESS TO HYGIENE ITEMS. FOOD WAS ALSO AVAILABLE TO THEM EVERY WEEKDAY; AND A PREVIOUS PILOT PROGRAM, NOW PERMANENT, PROVIDES A WEEKLY, LIGHTWEIGHT KIT OF FOOD THAT INCLUDES PROTEIN, FRUIT, LIQUIDS AND EASILY PORTABLE NONPERISHABLES SUCH AS GRANOLA BARS. WE ALSO CONTINUED OUR THANKSGIVING DINNER KIT GIVEAWAY TO FOOD BANK CLIENTS WHO SIGNED UP FOR TICKETS TO THE FALL EVENT. THESE FOODS ARE PAID FOR DIRECTLY BY IMPACT THROUGH A PARTNERSHIP WITH WALMART AND OTHER MARKETS, BUT MANY DONORS ALSO RESTRICT DONATIONS TO THIS PROGRAM. WE NOW PREPARE 350 KITS ANNUALLY. THE NEED CONTINUES TO GROW. HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS RECEIVED A GIFT CERTIFICATE TO OUR LOCAL BASHA'S MARKET FOR A HOT THANKSGIVING DINNER FROM THEIR DELI HOT COUNTER. ALL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO EAT A SPECIAL MEAL FOR THE HOLIDAY. CLOTHING BANK - IMPACT OF SOUTHERN ARIZONA
