Welcome to Project MANA

Project MANA believes that adequate food for the maintenance of physical, emotional, and mental well-being is a basic human right, as in the best interest of the community.

Since July of 1991, Project MANA has responded to the emergency food needs of individuals, families, and children in North Lake Tahoe and Truckee communities by:

• Providing immediate relief to those experiencing hunger in the form of groceries distributed to families by Project MANA volunteers.
• Educating and empowering individuals and families experiencing hunger to identify and alleviate the causes of hunger.
• Mobilizing human and other community resources to advocate for the hungry and low-income populations. Included in this effort is educating the community about hunger issues.
• Breaking the cycle of hunger and building a hunger-free community.

To achieve our mission we have developed a variety of programs to assist in alleviating hunger and identifying its root causes. A detailed list of our programs and how you can get involved in each one is provided in What We Do.
