“The cost of food continues to increase exponentially since the pandemic,” said Crusoe-Ingram about the party with a purpose. “The nearly 30% price increase on food costs puts many of our seniors in a predicament to choose between food, utilities and medications, and that’s not a decision we allow our seniors to take lightly.”

With the majority of the MOWA programs being funded by donations, TASTE fed the company’s goal to raise $3 million and ultimately get all 600 seniors off the waitlist by the end of 2024.
