Through the Senior Staples ministry, RIFA partners with senior centers in Jackson and surrounding counties to identify senior citizens who are food insecure and provide food assistance throughout the year.
The Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program is a very special part of the Senior Staples ministry. From April-October, RIFA is able to provide fresh fruits and vegetables to the residents of Rosewood Gardens and Centennial Pass in Jackson. The produce is grown locally at Falcon Ridge Farm and hand delivered by RIFA staff and volunteers!
This ministry aims to make sure that these valued members of our community are not overlooked. Participants will receive a 25-30 pound box of shelf-stable, staple food items to supplement their pantries
In 2024, RIFA provided 152,175 meals through the Senior Staples ministry alone!
