Friends of Buffalo Creek, Inc. also maintains a community Fridge & Freezer to store perishable food items that we receive to distribute to the school community and beyond.
Our “Through Community” Campaign was our inaugural community service campaign which we launched during the early stages of the COVID Pandemic.
PPE Give-a-ways, Food Give-a-ways, and Cook-outs
During the height of the pandemic, our team went out to support our community with food give-a-ways at the Delavan Grider Community Center, PPE Give-a-ways at the Tops on Jefferson Ave & Save-a-lot (Broadway), and free Cook-outs at various BMHA Housing Projects throughout the Buffalo area.
Friends of Buffalo Creek Inc. donated funds paid for groceries and PPE.

Grocery Delivery Service
During the aftermath of the horrible Massacre which occurred at the Tops of Jefferson Ave., our team loaded up our school vans to deliver groceries to those with no means for transportation as well as those who relied on the Tops on Jefferson and could not access their groceries.
Friend of Buffalo Creek Inc. donated funds paid for groceries, fuel, and drivers.
