JOIN US
During these turbulent times in our country and the world, are you looking for a way to help those in need? Do you care about feeding children and their families when they are most vulnerable? Food for Thought of Contra Costa County has been successfully feeding school children since 2011. During the past 14 years, F4T has grown. We are now a 501(C)(3) nonprofit organization with a governance board that meets once a month. Our current group of voluntary board members have been actively involved for many years, but of late it has become apparent that we need new members with fresh ideas and new perspectives. Please consider this wonderful opportunity to join an organization dedicated to feeding children.
