What is Kelly Memorial Food Pantry? What is our FreshStart program?
Kelly Memorial Food Pantry is an independent non-profit food pantry serving El Paso families. Our average monthly count of families served in 2019 was 2,500. Since COVID, our average weekly number of families served is 5000. COVID has exorbitantly impacted El Pasoans, and we are extremely thankful for El Pasoans Fighting Hunger for their daily donations of food to distribute to our community.
Kelly also serves the community through its elaborate and comprehensive FreshStart program, the second of its kind in the US. FreshStart recruits members from the Kelly line looking for potential members who are willing to work on three tangible goals that could help them, and their families no longer need the Kelly Pantry for food. The team is staffed with social workers who use motivational interviewing to connect clients with resources, jobs, and health care in the El Paso community. Currently, FreshStart has about 100 members working towards their goals for food, housing, and work security. If you can share information provided about FreshStart, that would also be amazing. I'm sure members of our EP community could use a robust program such as this during these times.
