SUMMARY:2026 Minnesota FoodShare March Campaign
DESCRIPTION:Multiply Your Impact. Strengthen Our Community.\nFor more than 40 years\, the Minnesota FoodShare March Campaign has united communities across the state to fight hunger. Today\, it is the largest grassroots food and fund drive in Minnesota\, and CROSS Services proudly participates alongside food shelves statewide. \nMarch 1 – April 6\, CROSS Services joins this annual effort\, led by the Greater Minneapolis Council of Churches (GMCC)\, to strengthen support for local families facing food insecurity. \n\nWhy Your Gift in March Matters\nGiving during the March Campaign does more than support food access today — it strengthens the safety net for neighbors navigating difficult seasons. \nYour gift: \n\n\nSupports CROSS Services’ work locally\, helping individuals and families access food and build stability \n\n\nCounts toward our total in the statewide Minnesota FoodShare campaign \n\n\nIncreases the funding we receive back through the Minnesota FoodShare FoodFund \n\n\nHow the FoodFund Multiplies Impact\nThe FoodFund was created to strengthen food shelves by redistributing dollars based on what each community raises and the number of individuals served. \nWhen our community gives generously\, it unlocks additional funding that comes back to CROSS Services. \nThat means your March gift doesn’t just help once — it helps twice. It feeds families today and strengthens our ability to serve tomorrow. \nWhy Now\nCROSS Services continues to serve families navigating rising food costs and ongoing economic pressure. March is one of the most important times of year to give\, allowing us to maximize our participation in the Minnesota FoodShare campaign and strengthen support for the months ahead. \nEvery dollar donated: \n\n\nStays local at CROSS Services \n\n\nHelps us purchase food at wholesale prices\, stretching your gift further \n\n\nIncreases the funding we receive through the FoodFund \n\n\nGifts made now through April 6 count toward our March Campaign total. \nMake Your March Gift\nNow through April 6\, every gift to CROSS Services counts toward our Minnesota FoodShare March Campaign total — amplifying the impact of your generosity locally and statewide. \nGive in the way that works best for you. Every dollar stays local\, stretches further\, and strengthens the funding we receive through the FoodFund. \nThis campaign isn’t just about raising food and funds — it’s about multiplying impact. \nWhen you give during the March Campaign\, you help feed families today and strengthen our ability to serve tomorrow.
