Grow with St. Joe’s

Capital Campaign

We are excited that after careful planning and community input, St. Joe’s is embarking on our first ever capital campaign project. This project will renovate St. Joe’s current building to better serve our client families, and prepare for the future by contributing towards our endowment fund.

St. Joseph Food Program has been serving the Fox Valley for over 40 years, providing supplemental weekly nutrition to food insecure individuals. Since 1996, we have been housed at 1465A Opportunity Way in a building that was built for us for that purpose. At that time, because of the generosity of a local family foundation, St. Joe’s paid $100 for our then brand new 20,000 square foot facility! Increased need and changes in our distribution model necessitate that we reconfigure our space to maximize our ability to continue to serve food insecure individuals and families within our current footprint.
