If you extend your soul to the hungry

 

And satasfy the afflicted soul,

 

Then your light shall dawn in the darkness,

 

And your darkness shall be as the noonday.

 

Isaiah 58,v10

Redding Loaves and Fishes is supported by area grocers, philanthropic community service clubs, church charities and generous and charitable individuals. We are a coalition of local food banks, food assistance providers,and community members. Due to the high number of persons in poverty needing food assistance charities in the Redding and Shasta County area, the program's food bank supply is often exhausted before the end of each month, when need is the highest. Sometimes the food bank program calls on other food banks and charities in Redding and Shasta County for emergency supplies, and visa versa. We gladly accept canned fruits, vegetables and meats, "meal in a can " items such as chili, ravioli, stews, and chunky soups; staples such as peanut butter, jams, jellies and tuna; packaged goods such as pastas and potato and rice dishes, as well as cereal.

Although the focus is on food charity, clients often need basic goods: toilet paper, dental hygiene products and grooming aids, baby food and diapers, etc... Redding Loaves and Fishes strives to provide these items as well to persons in greatest need, and will gladly accept these non food items.

RL&F always welcomes your gently used Bibles for our ongoing Bible Distribution ministry. We give Bibles freely to any person who requests!

We also gladly accept monetary donations...

Please mail checks to:

Redding Loaves and Fishes, P.O. Box 994473, Redding, CA 96099-4473.
