Resources for Families during COVID-19

Food Resources

4.5 tons of food to be delivered for distribution this Saturday, August 22nd.  This is high quality food, not old expired garbage.  This Saturday there is supposed to be frozen chickens, fresh vegetables, fresh dairy and the usual canned and dried staples.  I’ve seen what’s in these boxes and there’s even dessert items from time to time. 

The distribution is scheduled to start by 9:00 a.m. and will take place at Kennedy Mid School located at
721 Tomasita St. NE, Albuquerque, 87123.  Tomasita St. is the first light west of Juan Tabo on Lomas Blvd and Kennedy is located south of Lomas on Tomasita.

First Nation offers “to go” meals

The Indigenous Plate Program is providing hot “To-Go” meals for breakfast and lunch (M-F) at our All Nations Wellness & Healing Center located at 6416 Zuni Rd. SE. This is an important life-source for our families and relatives.

Due to the recent health concerns of COVID-19 and following FNCH's policies, ANWHC will only be giving out To-Go orders. There will be no sitting inside the dining room during Breakfast and Lunch hours.  Thank you for your understanding and be safe everyone!
