Grass Valley, CA
The genesis of IFM began in 1981, when Mary Chan went on a missionary trip to Asia. She was moved by the poverty she saw. When she returned home to Grass Valley, she felt the need to feed the poor in the community, feeling that "charity begins at home." Thus, Operation Blessings began. Mary and a few like-minded individuals rented a small house with the rent paid by St. Patrick's Church and Calvary Bible Church.
In 1987, it became Interfaith Food Ministry involving various churches in Western Nevada County. Eventually the operations expanded and the facility on Henderson Street was purchased. IFM feeds the hungry, helping to sustain good health and human dignity.
