Food Basket Project

Especially in a shrinking economy, food insecurity continues to be a challenge in eastern Kentucky. When food stamps are not enough, families turn to Christian Appalachian Project for help. Your gifts of non-perishable food items help CAP stock our food bank and supply hundreds of families with much-needed food.
