Angelfood Ministries | Helping Save Money On Groceries

ST. LOUIS, March 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Financial blog, ChristianPF.com released an article discussing some of the benefits of AngelFood Ministries. The ministry's focus is on providing groceries to all for a fraction of what shoppers pay at traditional grocery stores. It was founded in 1994 when Joe and Linda Wingo were looking to provide food for their friends and family who were having financial difficulties. Their hearts went out to families who were affected by industrial plant closings in the nearby Monroe, GA area. On their back porch, the first food distribution fed 34 families. Over the years, other churches wanted to get involved, and the ministry had expanded across the southeast. Currently, this program is providing food to more than 500,000 families across 44 states every month!

An excerpt from the article...

Every month, Angel Food Ministries offers a menu of food items known as their signature box for the price of $30. However, the retail value for the items is estimated to be $65, and the food is restaurant grade. Each month's menu is different, consisting of fresh, frozen, and packaged food. The food is purchased from the nation's top food suppliers at substantial volume discounts, thereby offering the same quality foods while passing along the savings to the customers.

There are no second-hand items, no damaged or out-dated goods, no day-old breads and no produce that is almost too ripe. One unit of food is enough to feed a family of four for about a week, or a single senior citizen for a month.
