Angel Food BoxThe Angel Food grocery box is made available at $25.00 per box. Each month's menu is different than the previous month and consists of both fresh, canned, refrigerated and frozen items in the major food groups with an average retail value of approximately $50. Comparison shopping has been done in Missouri using a wide range of retail grocery stores and has resulted in the same food items costing from between $62 and $75.
Generally, one unit of food assists in feeding a family of four for about one week or a single senior citizen for almost a month. The food is all the same high quality one would purchase at a grocery store. There are no second-hand items, no damaged or out-dated goods, no dented cans without labels, no day-old breads, and no produce that is almost too ripe. Also offered are specialty boxes such as steaks, chicken, and pork. Many participants in this bonus program appreciate the expanded choices. Additionally, there is no limit to the number of units or bonus foods an individual can purchase, and there are no applications to complete or qualifications to which participants must adhere. Children's Feeding Network also participates in the U.S. Food Stamp Program. Therefore, a purchaser can use food stamps to pay for food boxes purchased. How the Program works Food box orders and distribution are handled by CFN and other approved host sites in the area. Orders and payments are collected during the first part of each month. Several days later in the same month the food will arrive at the Children's Feeding Network host locations and the recipient will bring an empty box, and will pick up their food at a specific time determined by CFN.
