Support BFDFs New Truck for Food Aid

Birchwood Food Desert Fighters distributes roughly 1 to 1.5 tons of food and supplies out to the community every week free of charge. Our mutual aid project gets fresh produce, homestyle meals and more out to 100-150 households a week. After 8 years of fanagling all of our food and supply pickups and deliveries with 2-4 cars every week, Birchwood Food Desert Fighters is finally getting a truck! Ferndale Food bank is updating it's fleet and they have generously donated their extra vehicle. We are hoping to raise enough funds to cover insurance, tabs, a paint job/letter removal, gas, and regular maintenance.

Here's a breakdown of our estimated costs:

$2000 insurance

$175 tabs

$300 lettering removal

$600 gas ($100/ mo gas x 6 months)

$200 spray paint to redecorate truck

$1000 maintenance fund

$300 credit/debit/transaction fees

Anything extra raised will be used to purchase more food for the community during the off season when we are not receiving produce donations from local farms.
