Step 1, Inc. is proud to share that we’ve received an $8,184 grant from Food Bank of Northern Nevada through their Partner Agency Capacity Building Initiative! 🙌

This funding allowed us to replace aging refrigeration equipment with a new freezer and client refrigerator ensuring safe, reliable storage for perishable food and helping us avoid the risk of losing vital supplies. As much of our food comes from FBNN, dependable equipment is essential to continuing to serve healthy, nutritious meals to our clients.

We recently welcomed FBNN Strategic Gifts Advisor Connor Bush and donor Thomas Bottom for a tour, where we highlighted the impact of this partnership and showcased our new equipment.

We’re grateful for FBNN’s ongoing support in strengthening our ability to serve our community!
