SERVING FAMILY WELL-BEING 270 Amani Families Served with Summer Mobile Food Pantries DC, Feeding America, Amani United and partners to share food & resources
This summer, in partnership with Feeding Amer- ica Eastern Wisconsin, DC distributed 14,000 pounds of healthy food to more than 270 Amani families at three mobile food pantries. Food was distributed out of Feeding America’s re- frigerated truck and residents could choose their items, which were then boxed up by volunteers. Residents enjoyed different varieties of fresh produce, meat, cheese, milk and pantry staples at each mobile pantry. In addition, Feeding America supplied diapers and wipes, and DC and Amani United distributed
hygiene kits donated by Northwestern Mutual.
We also worked with partner organizations to bring services resources to Amani families. Par- ticipating partners include Amani United, the Milwaukee Bucks, Milwaukee Health Services, City of Milwaukee Health Department, Milwaukee County, Familia Dental, Legal Aid Society, Safe- Link, Department of Neighborhood Services and Milwaukee Fire Department. None of these efforts would have been possible without volunteers from Amani United, Parsons House, Northwestern Mutual and Feeding America.
