Fill the Fridge
Join Our Mission: Fill the Fridge This July
Louisiana faces some of the highest rates of food insecurity in the nation, with children and seniors being the most affected. During the summer months, especially in July when school meal programs are unavailable, families feel the weight of food insecurity the most.
​
Our Community Fridge is a free, 24/7 resource where neighbors can give what they can and take what they need. It’s a simple yet powerful way to ensure that no one in our community goes hungry.
​
This July, we’re asking businesses, organizations, and individuals to pledge just one day to stock the fridge. Your support can make a real difference in reducing hunger and providing hope to those in need.
​
Together, we can fill the fridge—and fill hearts—with kindness and nourishment. Will you pledge a day in July to help?

Community Fridge
​The Red Shoes hosts a Community Fridge on our property to provide healthy, accessible food for our neighbors. Together, we can fight hunger and build a stronger, more compassionate community.
