🌾 The Harvest Initiative
​
Nourishing Our Neighbors, One Meal at a Time
​
Every season, The Rising Rose Foundation turns our focus to one of the most basic human needs — access to food. Through our Harvest Initiative, we raise funds and collect donations to support Rockingham County residents facing food insecurity.
​
Right here in our own community, families are struggling to put food on the table. Rising grocery costs and unexpected hardships have left many local parents skipping meals so their children can eat, seniors choosing between prescriptions and groceries, and neighbors quietly going hungry.
Your donation helps us provide grocery gift cards, fresh meals, and pantry staples to families who need it most — often right before the holidays, when the gap feels the widest.
​
Every dollar makes an impact:
$25 provides a week’s worth of nutritious lunches for a child
$50 helps stock a family’s pantry with essentials
$100 supplies grocery gift cards to support multiple households
Together with community partners like Gather Food Pantry in Portsmouth, we’re building a stronger, more compassionate Rockingham County — one meal, one act of kindness, one neighbor at a time.
Give today. Your generosity helps feed both bodies and hope.
