More than $100,000 in grants have been awarded by the DTE Energy Foundation to help provide meals for Michigan families facing food insecurity during the coronavirus pandemic.
The funding is going to Feeding America West Michigan, Fishes & Loaves Community Food Pantry in Taylor and Gleaners Community Food Bank in Detroit.
Fish & Loaves will use its $25,000 grant, in part, to extend its hours and supplies to serve an additional 1,000 households per month.
Gleaners Community Food Bank serves the Detroit area and other parts of Southeast Michigan. It will use a $55,000 grant to help support four critical school food mobile distributions in Macomb County. The program partners with local school districts to provide families in need with fresh produce, milk and shelf stable groceries, including protein and whole grains.
Feeding America West Michigan near Grand Rapids will receive a $25,000 grant to fund 20 mobile food pantries that will provide meals to about 3,400 families across five counties.
The DTE Energy Foundation has provided funding for the distribution of more than 3 million meals since March 2020.
