Help Us Feed The Community

Our Mission

Koibito Cares is a 501(C)3 nonprofit with a two-part mission – To show appreciation to those serving the community and to support those in need. We care about our community and have fed thousands of people in need.  Our three focus areas are: At-risk youth and homeless, first responders and hospitals. 

from Saint Vincent de Paul

I wanted to write this letter to you on behalf of St. Vincent De Paul for all the support that Koibito Cares has provided to our organization. Your partnership with us has allowed us to serve the nutritional needs of some of the most vulnerable in our communities.

Kobito Cares has been responsible for allowing our organization to provide to those suffering from severe food insecurity, over 43,000 meals in 2022 and over 67,000 meals in 2023.

This effort has made a significant impact in providing comfort to so many vulnerable individuals in our community that they will get through the day with the assurance of having a regular nutritious meal.

These meals that you have provided have truly been lifesaving to those individuals that we serve, including the many vulnerable and “in need”  Military Veterans who access our meal services on a regular basis.

We hope to be able to continue to work together in the years to come to serve the needs of our community and provide a sustainable safety net to those who truly are at risk of lack of food and proper nourishment.

The kindness, compassion, & support Koibito Cares has shown the community that we serve has left an indelible impression on all those who have been associated with this endeavor!

May God Bless your future efforts.

from Arizona First Responders

Koibito Poke has generously donated 630 meals to Arizona First Responders in partnership with the 100 Club of Arizona! Amazing! 

The 100 Club of Arizona is grateful for Koibito Pokes’ continual donations of healthy meals for Arizona First Responders.  At the 100 Club of Arizona, our programs support police officers and firefighters and we estimate that 80% of the meals went directly to those in sworn/certified officer and firefighter positions.  The additional 20% went to professional support staff members such as Dispatchers, Wellness Coordinators, etc. who serve in civilian positions.

When delivering the meals we receive countless comments of appreciation, and we are always sure to make it known we are just delivering but the thanks belongs to Koibito Poke for their 100% donation.  We explain that Koibito Poke is a generous business that commits to honoring and thanking First Responders for their sacrifices and commitment to ensuring our communities are resilient, protected, and cared for.  Our police officers and firefighters make a positive impact within our communities daily, and they are so grateful to Koibito Poke for recognizing and honoring their efforts and dedication. 

The majority of these meals would simply not have been provided if not donated by Koibito Poke. Without your support, we would have needed to pay for 325 meals to serve at our annual First Responder Wellness Conferences.  Your donation saved us over $4,000 (estimate of $12.50/person) that we were able to put right back into our budget to provide immediate assistance to families of public safety officers and firefighters who are seriously injured or killed in the line of duty, and to provide resources to enhance their safety and welfare. 

About

Formed in 2020, Koibito Cares serves as the 501c3 nonprofit arm of Koibito Pokē. Covid-19 served as the impetus for Koibito Pokē’s leadership to “Spread the love” and give back to tireless first responders, essential workers, and those impacted by the pandemic. After donating thousands of free meals and executing fundraising efforts to allow the community to also offer their support to those less fortunate or impacted by the current economic crisis, Koibito Pokē’s leadership made an official dedication to community efforts by forming Koibito Cares, which will extend into other communities as the company expands with franchises.

Most recently, Koibito Cares has extended our reach to serve donated meals to some of those most in need through our work with Saint Vincent De Paul, through which we have donated over 100,000 meals to date to help feed the homeless!
