With support from our generous donors, Open Your Heart provided Buffalo Food Shelf with funding towards the Purchase Pantry Saver computer application package, resulting in a more efficient and effective environment for food distribution. Buffalo Food Shelf is a Christian, non-profit, community-based organization serving individuals and families in Buffalo and Montrose, Minnesota. They seek to serve individuals and families that receive limited financial assistance or who are experiencing some kind of crisis and need help providing basic family needs. Their goal is to provide food and hygiene items to these people. They strive to coordinate the efforts of their many donors and to make the food shelf a welcoming place where clients feel comfortable having their needs met without cost or obligation. They also have a program in place delivering to senior apartment buildings in Buffalo. During the summer they offer a Kid’s Choice program offering extra, kid-friendly food to families with school-aged children. They also provide additional food to families around Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. Thank you Buffalo Food Shelf for everything you do!
