For the month of February, our featured nonprofit is Least of These, Christian County Food Pantry!
Founded in 1998, Least of These has been and is still helping feed families in the Ozark area. They started off by servicing around 100 families after their first year. As of 2018, Least of These is helping over 9,500 families receive food. To break that down for you, they are distributing over 89,000 pounds of food every month.
Least of These’s goal is to Alleviate food insecurity in Christian County by providing food, resources, and education to address the challenges of our neighbors in need. Every month about 860 families lean on Least of These for assistance with food, housing, and clothing.
The values that Least of These have show through everyday, they will meet the needs of our neighbors through compassion, love, faith, understanding and generosity.
