As of September 2011, the Angel Food Volunteer Project is canceled until further notice.  Please contact Kimmel Leadership Center with any questions.

What is Angel Food?  Angel Food provides quality, nutritious food at a reduced cost through a self-help distribution system.  The USDA has provided $6.97 million to increase the scope of the Angel Food coop program.  Angel Food works through churches, community organizations, and social agencies to distribute the food.

The program is designed to assist families and individuals attempting to balance the increasing cost of necessities with stagnant salaries.  Each month about 500,000 families in 32 states participate in the program. 

Where is Angel Food?  SIUE Volunteer Services is working with two Illinois locations to assist in developing the Angel Food (food coop) program.  The two locations and addresses are listed below.  To volunteer, please sign up for one of the locations.  Angel Food is one Saturday a month.
