What is Angel Food Ministries?
Angel Food Ministries is a non-profit, non-denominational food program dedicated to helping families stretch their food dollar.

Is this a need-based program?
Angel Food provides a way to be a good steward of your family’s food budget, but it is not a charity or a poverty program.  There are no income guidelines, applications or pre-qualifiers to participate.  Angel Food provides a hand up, not a hand-out!

What does participation include?
Angel Food provides fresh and frozen food consisting of high quality items at substantial savings.  Each unit provides enough food to feed a family of four for about one week, or one person for about a month. 

How much does one unit cost?
Angel Food is available in a quantity that can fit into a medium-sized box at $30 per unit.  The menu changes monthly and consists of both fresh and frozen items with an average retail value of approximately $60.  Senior boxes include ten fully cooked, individually packaged meals.  Additional specials are also available monthly and may be purchased along with an order for a regular or senior box.

Where is the host site for my area?
The Waukee Area Christian Food Pantry (WACFP) is the host site for the Waukee area. 
The pantry is located at Westview Church on the corner of University and Boone Drive in Waukee, across from Casey’s General Store.

When can I get my food?
Angel Food packages are distributed at the host site usually on the fourth Saturday of every month.  The menu changes monthly, and there is no limit to the number of units or specials an individual can receive.
