Fall is upon us, and with it brings cold and flu season. For seniors like Jane, having access to nutritious food is vital to her health.

“Your ‘Nutrition for Seniors Program’ is a welcome gift,” she shares. “Without your food I’d have to sacrifice my nutrition with inexpensive and not-so-healthy foods like macaroni and cheese.”

A dental hygienist for over 40 years, Jane’s husband was diagnosed with a mental health issue that required use of their retirement savings account. They’ve found it challenging to live on their social security income, especially with recent inflation, so they find our monthly food box for seniors particularly helpful.

“I’ve tried to encourage other seniors like me to access your programs,” she shares. “But like me, they’re proud. It isn’t easy asking for help but sometimes you just need that extra assistance.”

Help us fill the plates of our Northland neighbors in need during this year’s Minnesota Grocer’s Association “Bag Hunger Campaign,” October 13-30.

Super One Foods is hosting a “Register Campaign” allowing you to donate $1, $3, $5, or rounding up your transaction at checkout. Participating stores include 23 locations throughout NE Minnesota and NW Wisconsin. Every $1 you donate will help us ensure 3 meals for families, children, and seniors in your local Super One Foods community.

“The Miner family and Super One Foods stores have been a proud supporter of Second Harvest for decades,” shares President/CEO Patrick Miner. “Your service within our Super One communities supports food shelves and neighbors experiencing food insecurity.”
