Food Outreach

Feeding families with dignity & love

Each month, Abide In Love distributes food baskets assembled with care — stocked with the familiar ingredients that immigrant families in the greater St. Louis area actually cook with.

More than a meal, a message of welcome

When a parent is detained or deported, the family left behind faces an immediate crisis: lost income, fear of leaving home, and empty refrigerators. Our Food Outreach program exists for exactly these moments: bringing culturally familiar foods directly to immigrant families who can no longer safely or easily provide for themselves.

Our Food Outreach program meets those needs with baskets designed by and for our community — filled with the food items, produce, grains, and spices that feel like home. Each delivery is a message: you are not forgotten.

Donate to Food Outreach

Gifts made here are designated specifically for the Food Outreach program (separate from our general operating fund) and go directly toward purchasing basket ingredients for families in need.

Donate to our general food outreach fund - or sponsor a family!
