Town Pump teams with Libby, Troy food banks in annual fundraiser
As increasing food costs and other everyday expenses push more Montanans to local food banks for help, the Town Pump Charitable Foundation is matching over $1.1 million to help raise $4 million during its annual fundraising campaign for food banks including the Libby Food Pantry and the Troy Food Pantry.
A record 116 food banks statewide are participating this year in the “Help Those in Need” campaign, which originated in 2001. The campaign has raised about $52 million for Montana food banks in 22 years, including nearly $12 million in matching grants from the Town Pump Charitable Foundation. The campaign runs through Nov. 30.
Locally, the Foundation is matching up to $7,500 each in Libby and Troy, and all funds raised remain in the respective communities.
