The Ashland Food Angels, in operation since 1996, operates nearly every day of the year to provide food, clothing and other useful items to those in need in the Ashland and Medford areas of the Roguei Valley. An all-volunteer registered non-profit (501c-3), we work in cooperation with our sister non-profit, the Congregatibon of the Angels of Service. Our work is to connect those who have goods to donate with those organizations who help people in our towns. Over the years we have been graced with the generosity of many local donors, the people and stores and farmers who make our work possible.
Without the support of our Donors, we would not be able to serve the needs or our fellow Rogue Valley residents. We offer a special thanks to the following donors:
