When organizations like Rio Grande Food Project, Food is Free Albuquerque and ABQ Mutual Aid work together, MORE food gets distributed throughout our commUNITY, like these beautiful cold-weather plants that were distributed to RGFP clients and even some planted in our Urban Garden. Together our 3 nonprofits have distributed over 500k pounds of food in 2021.
Donate on #GivingTuesday or start early on #GivingMonday, where your support will have 3x the impact since all proceeds will be shared among our 3 non-profits working to reduce hunger, sharing the bounty of food available with those who need it the most.

We are taking initial steps to purchase the empty land adjacent to our existing shared space (that we have outgrown) and to design a future facility that will provide a more robust continuum of care to families and individuals experiencing food insecurity. RGFP has provided millions of pounds of food, plus additional household income-maximizing assistance, to food-insecure community members for the past 33 years. This buildout is critical to fully realizing our mission of alleviating hunger and cultivating long-term food security in our communities. www.rgfp.org [email protected] (505) 831-3778
