Weekend Supplemental Food

Weekend Supplemental Food

Weekend Supplemental Food

It's hard to believe but some students go a whole weekend without any food.  Help us address this problem.


For at risk students, GRIN, with the help of Gahanna-Jefferson teachers and groups in the community provide a small pack of supplemental food every Friday, during school and throughout the summer months. 


If you are aware of a student who faces food insecurity over weekends, please reach out to inform us so we can look into the situation.

Financial Assistance

Weekend Supplemental Food

Financial Assistance

Program Discontinued


In order to best serve the greater Gahanna community, the GRIN Board of Directors has voted to discontinue the financial assistance program.  With the increased number of families in need, inflation and the Federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) returning to pre-pandemic levels of support, we anticipate even more families needing help with food this year. This change will allow GRIN to most effectively address hunger needs in Gahanna.
