As a proud partner of Good Start for Women + Children (First 5), STEP provides food care packages for families with children under the age of 5 and/or pregnant who are San Diego Residents (Active Duty or Veteran). Since this partnership began in July we have aided more than 100 families from Camp Pendleton to Miramar to North Island and beyond! We understand the growing food insecurity that our families are facing and are working to keep food on the table during hard times.
The care package includes non-perishable items such as peanut butter, rice, beans, oatmeal, canned fruit or vegetables and more.
