Who is Tracy Patton and REACH ?
What is the REACH! Food Program?
We are a nonprofit organization that feeds hungry children! We deliver food and personal hygiene items to the homes and schools of the children in our program. We are able to do this because of the generosity of all who donate food, hygiene items, and money to this program.

To REACH! every hungry child!!

Our volunteers make it possible to feed the hungry children that we REACH!! Help us make a difference by visiting our Volunteer/Donate page.
Our history
Are you wondering why this is called a “ministry”? A “ministry” is the act of serving others! A “ministry” is also a person through which something is accomplished! Tracy Patton Ministries does just that!
Tracy Patton Ministries was founded in May, 2015, when Tracy realized the need for a free food program for families with children. While visiting an elementary school in Indiana, Tracy learned that many families have a difficult time feeding their children. Tracy immediately took action, and opened the REACH! food program for children and their families. The food program was a huge success; and now provides food for hungry kids in many different states!
Our food pantry for kids is also very unique, as we deliver food TO the children and families!
The REACH! food program also helps local schools with school supplies, snacks, personal hygiene items, extra food to send home with children on the weekends and during breaks from school. We are able to do this because of our amazing volunteers! Please consider becoming a volunteer for our program.
In 2017, Tracy Patton Ministries became a nonprofit organization.
Tracy also travels to schools, churches, organizations, sports teams, and businesses to promote positive and motivational messages.
(Please see our “Booking” page for a list of topics!)
