Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Every human being has a fundamental right to access to food. No person deserves to go hungry. The reality is that food insecurity impacts one in six Americans who report running out of food at least once a year. We serve individuals, families, senior citizens and homeless who are desperate for groceries for themselves and their families.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
Christmas Program
We provide a Ham along with all the trimmings for families, senior citizens and individuals in need of a helping hand.
Easter Event
Local families in need are given a ham and all the trimmings for an Easter dinner. In addition, children are given Easter baskets filled with goodies and love.
Back-to-School Backpack Event
Children do better in school if they have the supplies they need. We provide children in our area with new backpacks filled with school supplies. They are also given healthy snacks, gift cards for shoes and haircuts.
Thanksgiving Event
We provide a turkey and all the trimmings to allow our food-insecure clients to have a traditional holiday meal with their family.
Pantry on Wheels
We deliver perishable and non-perishable food to senior citizens and local college students in need with a refrigerated van operated by a team of volunteers, on a weekly basis.
Nourishing Lives Cooking Class
A cooking demonstration and lunch is provided to clients once a month to educate them about nutrition and learn healthy ways to prepare the food and organic produce that they receive at the food bank.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Our goal is to provide nutritious food and support to as many individuals and families as possible, experiencing hunger in our community.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Twin Lakes Food Bank receives perishable food from seven local grocery stores and thousands of pounds of non-perishable food from individuals, churches, schools and businesses. We offer onsite and mobile food distribution services every week to over 1800 individuals. We have an organic garden and a monthly cooking/nutrition class for our clients to learn about and eat fresh fruits and vegetables. We want to increase the number of clients we serve through an outreach campaign to inform and register new guests.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Twin Lakes has seven part-time and one full-time staff member to run the operations and implement new programs to accomplish its goals. In addition, there are 80+ volunteers that serve at the food bank every week to ensure that clients receive food with dignity and respect.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We have reached maximum capacity at our current facility and when our goals to increase clients are achieved, will have to move into a larger facility that will enable serving more clients and have space for a client choice shopping experience.
