Appeal for Lost Funds

Appeal for lost funds
County Funding for Food Plummets!

For 6 years the REFB has received major funding from Sonoma County for food assistance. Funds are now being substantially cut – reducing the number of meals we can provide.

We need your help to raise $70,000 to make up for funding cuts – providing 140,000 meals to our hungry neighbors.

Help put a meal on someone’s table – thank you.
