TEESTO, Ariz. — The Navajo Nation, in partnership with the Navajo Agricultural Products Industry (NAPI), continues its commitment to food security by carrying out food box distributions at Teesto Chapter on Jan. 20, providing much-needed staples to local families during the winter season.
The distributions have helped support households as they face cold-weather conditions and increasing food costs. Each food box included a 50-pound bag of potatoes, a 20-pound bag of beans, a 25-pound bag of flour, and 10-pound bags of blue, yellow, and white cornmeal — essential items that reflect both nutritional needs and cultural significance.
Any remaining food boxes were distributed to registered voters within the chapter to ensure that available resources reached as many community members as possible.
Chapter staff and volunteers were recognized for their dedication, coordination, and tireless efforts in making the event a success. Community members expressed deep appreciation for the assistance, noting that the distributions provided both practical relief and reassurance that their needs are being seen and addressed.
