Staff in our Northern Counties office launched FoodSource as a small pilot program in 2017.
Managed in cooperation with the Shared Harvest Food Bank and the Western Ohio Foodbank, the program helps meet the food insecurity challenges of isolated, low-income seniors. Once a month, 40-pound boxes of staple food items are delivered to people in need in Darke, Shelby and Miami Counties.
At this time, the program serves individuals over the age of 60 who are isolated. An assessment is completed to determine need and slot availability.
Aging in Place reports that nearly one in every six seniors in America faces the threat of hunger and not being properly nourished. Read more on their website.
CSSMV’s experience operating their Choice Food Pantry in Dayton, along with their experience serving seniors in the rural counties, makes them a perfect partner for Shared Harvest to meet the growing number of people who are experiencing food insecurity in rural communities.

- Major Facility Expansion CompletedJuly 1, 2024 - 1:24 pm
CSSMV held a ribbon-cutting ceremony and celebration on Thursday, June 27, 2024, to mark the grand opening of its expanded facility at 922 West Riverview Avenue in Dayton. Construction of a 6,500 square foot addition to the existing building began in July of 2023. While discussions originally centered on ways to remodel the existing structure to better support program needs, it was determined that a significant expansion of the building’s footprint would provide the best long-term value for the agency and its constituents.
