During this season of Thanksgiving, I wanted to take a moment to extend our gratitude on behalf of the board and staff at Snoqualmie Valley Food Bank to you, our neighbor.

Your support was witnessed by a great turnout at our open house on Nov. 10. This was an opportunity to learn about the significant role Snoqualmie Valley Food Bank has in the stability and health of our Valley and the people we serve.

We are the Valley’s food bank that provides access to healthy food choices to residents of Preston, Fall City, Snoqualmie and North Bend. We also understand that the struggle often goes beyond the need for food. The food bank has a resource office with knowledgeable staff who assist people searching for employment, housing, food stamps and more.

We partner with other agencies and organizations to bring even more resources to our community. At Snoqualmie Valley Food Bank, we believe working together makes us stronger and allows everyone an opportunity to meet their potential and live a healthy life. We are proud of the partnerships we have with the local and state governments, organizations, churches, schools, businesses and individuals.

December marks the beginning of our fourth year of providing opportunities to people who are in a time that they need help and for those who are in a position of giving.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Heidi Dukich

Executive Director, Snoqualmie Valley Food Bank
