Support Our Critical Fundraising Campaign

With the federal government’s recent elimination of SNAP-Ed, along with changes in Youth Program funding, GRuB is facing a significant new budget gap, on the order of $300,000 or close to 25% of our budget. And, this is happening right when the communities we serve are facing increasing barriers to food, safety, and support—GRuB’s work is more critical than ever.

Please consider supporting our WAGives campaign to help us continue our vital community programs.
