Last year’s event saw over $16,000 in cash donations and seven tons of food donations raised with over 600 attendees. An $8,500 donation to Oasis was matched by an anonymous donor.

This year’s Foodstock is sponsored by the SHC Foundation, Federal Steel, West Star Aviation, Eagle's Nest Family Restaurant, Berry's Bar, Coldwell Banker Brown Realtor Team Campbell, and Olmsted Contracting.
