40% OF FOOD IN THE U.S. IS WASTED
yet still there are thousands of children and families in our community who go hungry every day
At Wyoming Food for Thought Project, our vision is a hunger-free community where everyone has access to nutritious food, regardless of their circumstances. We envision a future where no child goes to bed hungry, no family has to worry about where their next meal will come from, and every individual has the opportunity to thrive and succeed. Through our programs and initiatives, we are working towards building a stronger, more resilient community where everyone has the support and resources they need to lead healthy, fulfilling lives.

Food Bag Program
With the help of our incredible volunteers, we deliver 750 food bags every week to children and families throughout Casper and the surrounding area. These food bags are filled with enough food to feed a child three meals per day for every day of the week they are out of school. We also run a Summer Feeding Program, and a free pantry.
Urban Farming
We are working to create a community where everyone has access to local & healthy food. We run three free food community gardens that are open to all.
How You Can Help
Volunteers are vital to the continuance and completion of many, many tasks here at Wyoming Food for Thought Project. From packing weekend food bags, delivering the bags, organizing the food room, and working in the garden, to processing and dehydrating donated goods in the kitchen, every job is important.
