UNETE
Food Drive
Helping Keep Local Tables Full
Thank you to everyone who helped make our CASA Christmas Wishlist a success. With that chapter wrapped, we’re shifting gears and turning our attention to a community food drive.
Looking ahead to 2026, we’re doubling down on our support of UNETE’s food drive, helping gather food for neighbors experiencing food insecurity. This includes families navigating increased fear and isolation, especially immigrant families who are hesitant to leave their homes due to ongoing ICE aggression.
When people cannot safely or easily access food, the basics become harder to reach. This effort is about closing that gap in the most direct way possible.
UNETE is a local organization that works directly with immigrant and mixed immigration status families in our region, focusing on food access, dignity, and mutual support. Their work is rooted in trust and relationships, making sure help reaches people who often go unseen or unsupported. We're happy to support their ongoing food distribution efforts by helping gather needed items from our community.
