Lakeshore Food Club receives Consumers Energy Foundation grant.

LUDINGTON — The Lakeshore Food Club, 920 E. Tinkham Ave., has received a $3,000 grant from the Consumers Energy Foundation to continue providing increased access to food choices and resources for Mason County.

 “It has always been our goal at the Lakeshore Food Club to give our members the dignity of choosing from a selection of nutritious foods, as well as providing resources when requested. We are excited and grateful to accept this grant from the Consumers Energy Foundation and look forward to continuing our mission with these dollars,” said Sarah McMahon, director of the Lakeshore Food Club.

 “The Consumers Energy Foundation is committed to ensuring that Michigan residents have access to the vital resources they need in the communities we serve,” said Carolyn Bloodworth, secretary/treasurer of the Consumers Energy Foundation. “We are glad to support the Lakeshore Food Club and help sustain its work to serve the entire community.”

 The check was presented on Monday, January 20 by the Consumers Energy Foundation and accepted onsite by McMahon, as well as Kate Lietz, Program Coordinator of the Lakeshore Food Club.

The Lakeshore Food Club, a non-profit grocery store serving Mason County, opened in 2017. It continues to offer a wide range of food options for qualifying families. Members pay a $10 fee for a 30-day membership, and are then able to select from food options using points based on their household size. Members are able to personally shop and select food as often, or as seldom, as they choose during their monthly membership.
