Betsy Newman Client Food Pantry

ICAN distributes approximately 12,000 lbs. of food and personal supplies to over 300 HIV/AIDS infected clients and their families each month who are enrolled in ICAN’s client support programs.  As the demand for food is constantly increasing, please consider conducting a food drive at your business, church, school or home. When purchasing "Buy 1, Get 1 Free" groceries, think about giving your free items to ICAN. You can also help by donating shampoos, soaps and other toiletry items from your recent hotel stays. For more information on how you can help, call 239-337-2391. Thank you!
