Feeding Muskogee 2020

Feeding Muskogee 2020
Thursday, June 4th – Thursday, July 30th (9 Thursdays)

The City of Muskogee Foundation is partnering with the City of Muskogee and Neighbors Building Neighbors to feed families in need this summer. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused several summer programs to cancel, which allowed the City of Muskogee Foundation to repurposed grant funds and purchase food from the Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma.

This FREE food distribution program will begin Thursday, June 4th at 3:00 p.m. and run every Thursday at 3:00 p.m. for nine (9) weeks, ending July 30th. Volunteers will distribute boxes on a first-come, first-served basis to the first 450 cars.

The boxes will be passed out at the Hatbox Hanger (located at 4100 Border Ave., Muskogee, OK 74401). Vehicles will enter on Border Street off US Highway 69. Volunteers will assist with traffic control, food distribution and will conduct a short survey with each family as they enter the property. A detailed logistics map has been uploaded to the facebook event.

Individuals or groups who are interest in volunteering or making a monetary donation are asked to please contact Laura Wickizer by email at lwickizer@cityofmuskogeefoundation.org or by telephone at 918-577-6562.
