As we enter a new year, we’re looking back on 2022 with nothing but gratitude for what our community chose to accomplish, together. Your support as volunteers, food drive partners, financial supporters, cheerleaders, and advocates, made it possible for more neighbors than ever before to find the healthy food, belief, and partnership they needed to move forward.

Holland Community Garden Uses Sustainable Practices
Community Action House Provides Formula for Local Parents During National Shortage.
Community Action House has long worked to provide welcoming essential services for many of our neighbors in a time of need. That includes being a key provider of formula for many families. With recent shortages challenging so many families, Action House recently extended access to formula to anyone in the community who is unable to otherwise source the formula their children need.
Holland Rotary Donates Motorized Shopping Cart to Community Action House
The Holland After Hours Rotary Club has generously provided a new wheelchair and motorized shopping cart for use in the newly constructed Food Club & Opportunity Hub, with funding from a Rotary District 6290 matching grant and support from Gentex.
Community Action House staff anticipate that 90+ guests will benefit from the wheelchair and shopping cart, allowing them to shop more easily and independently around the Food Club floor.
Stamp Out Hunger with the Annual Postal Food Drive!
As a part of the National Association of Letter Carriers “Stamp Out Hunger” food drive, a national campaign each year, the post office will team up with their local community to gather food donations for shelters, food pantries, and other agencies which offer assistance to those in need on Saturday, May 21.
This function serves as the biggest event for organizations like Community Action House, Gateway Mission (formerly Holland Rescue Mission), Resilience: Advocates for Ending Violence, and Salvation Army to receive much-needed supplies for their food pantries.
