Help us achieve our goals!
Help Celestial Manna make an impact in your community!
Key aspects to Celestial Manna’s current and future operation depend upon a strong budget and generous donor base. We have seen incredible growth over the last few years and anticipate this trend will continue in the next five years. The demands for help are great; in order to give more, we need to have more. Multiple fundraising events will be part of our immediate calendar. Get in touch with us today!
Warehouse
We are in dire need of expanding our storage capacity; what we have now are small personal spaces spread out over our entire field of operations. As such, we have rejected numerous donations of goods and furniture due to the lack of storage space.
SOLUTION: A storage facility costs roughly $20,000 a year to rent and around $12,000 in utilities and other expenses. With your help, we can solve this issue thus enabling Celestial Manna to provide more for families and individuals in need– when they need it most!
Vehicles
Special situations arise in which food donations far exceed the transportation capability of our volunteer core (power outages, failed refrigeration units, etc…). These contributions can sometimes be so enormous that Celestial Manna has not had the vehicles to properly move the perishable items to a storage facility fast enough to sort, clean, refrigerate, or freeze the items before they perish. Through working partnerships and its own resources, Celestial Manna plans to rent vehicles to take advantage of such donations.
IMPACT: Food is not wasted and we are able to share with other organizations to assist in fulfilling their mission goals.
