ANGEL FOOD Program
Angel Food Ministries is a nonprofit, non-denominational organization that provides groceries at a greatly reduced price. The program is open to residents of all income levels and there is no limit on the number of units an individual can purchase. There are no applications to fill out but orders must be paid for in advance. Each month's menu is different and includes a mix of fresh and frozen items with a much higher retail value than its cost of $30. Each box of food can feed a family of four for about a week, or a single senior citizen for almost a month. You CAN use your Food Bridge cards for this program!
The program is run from
multiple churches in areas
around Metro Detroit as well
as around the country--just
check the website to find the
nearest church to you as well
as the monthly menu!
