The Challenge now is to maintain. This is what you need to know according to the most recent U.S. Census: 6,000 PLUS SENIORS ARE HUNGRY IN ST. JOHNS COUNTY. This is what you need to know about Pie in the Sky’s Senior Program: We deliver to 465 seniors. We have 35 seniors on our waiting list. 15 of the seniors on the waiting list are between 80 and 98 years old. Many others face chronic health issues that could be helped by having food to eat. Let that sink in … Having food to eat … In America … In St. Johns County …
In our own backyard! We are directly addressing this need in all the ways that make a critical difference by delivering fresh produce and spending time with these seniors in St Johns County. This has a direct impact on the health and well-being of the folks we deliver to. We need to do more… It costs Pie in the Sky $262.50 per year, per senior.
That’s .72 cents per day. Less than the price of a cup of coffee. 85.7 cents of every dollar that is donated to Pie goes directly to our program. The industry standard is .75 cents. We work hard to provide the freshest, best produce available at the best price. Last year we delivered 37 tons of healthy food. We need your help to maintain… 465 seniors and add 35 seniors on the waiting list that need fresh fruits and vegetables…to live. To have food to eat. .72 cents per day. We're all in this together and one day, God willing, we will all be seniors - God willing, we won't have to worry about having enough food to eat. Please help if you can.
