Great News. Rebuilding Together Solano County is still active in 2020 with our food pantry to more than 1,000 households in Solano County each month. These program services are offered to low-income veteran, senior, disabled and other low-income residents of Solano County.
RTSC Food Pantry has been operational since April 2018 in partnership with Vallejo Costco and the Solano Contra Costa Food Bank (as part of Feeding America). This allows RTSC to fulfill our mission of bringing volunteers and communities together to improve the homes and lives of low-income homeowners. Since COVID-19 the number of low-income veterans / seniors / disabled residents suffering from food insecurity multiplied seven-fold to more than 1,000 households a month. As such, RTSC has expanded our Food Pantry beyond our weekly program in Vallejo to include mobile monthly distributions to: 7 low-income mobile home parks throughout Solano County, Solano County Veterans and a partnership with Vallejo Steffan Manor Elementary School and the neighborhood. Due to the pandemic, the amount of food distributed by RTSC and its volunteers has expanded from an average of 750 to 10,000 pounds a week.
