SUMMARY:United Against Poverty's Ribbon Cutting
DESCRIPTION:Dear Valued Partner\, United Against Poverty Orlando (UP Orlando) has served the community for more than 20 years as a resource for offering low-cost nutritious foods through the UP Orlando onsite Member Share Grocery Program (MSGP). The community benefit of utilizing the MSGP program affords families the ability to obtain nutritious groceries\, at a reduced cost\, and stretch their dollars in order to cover other life's essentials such as housing\, utilities\, transportation\, child care and medical care.\n\n\n\nDuring hurricane Ian\, we lost our outdated\, not efficient coolers and freezers which were deemed unrepairable and inoperable. This resulted in families having a limited selection of nutritious foods forcing them to either do without or obtain food from a traditional grocer at a higher cost. As the MSGP program is a low-cost grocery center offering a typical nutritious grocery basket at a 60-70% reduced cost of a traditional grocer\, having to obtain groceries from a traditional grocer limits the value of their dollar. And once this occurs\, it becomes a question of   do we put food on the table or pay for utilities? Or worse\, a choice of food or housing. Thanks to our valuable partners like yourself we were able to complete the installation of the brand new freezers and coolers. The cost of this upgrade was $987\,000. We are so excited the project is complete and our community now has large variety of nutritious products.\n\n\n\nYou are cordially invited to the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on January 31st\, 2024 from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. The UP Orlando MSGP program is a critical resource for our community and relied upon each year by thousands of individuals and families to help ease their financial burdens. Thank you for the generous support that enables us to continue assisting individuals and families with the supportive services they need to not only survive but thrive.
