FaN Hubs are a pantry located at child care facilities serving young children and their families. FaN Hubs were launched in 2021 with support from Merced County First 5 Commission because child care providers were finding too many children lacking access to fresh fruits and vegetables. FaN Hubs provide food directly to families with young children easily to children and families they serve every day. already gather and receive care. This model helps us meet families where they are and create another pathway for food to reach homes with dignity and care.
