WEST FARGO, N.D., (July 15, 2025) – Individuals and families struggling with food insecurity will receive vital support, thanks to a grant awarded to West Fargo Eats by Sparklight® through its Charitable Giving Fund.
This spring, Sparklight awarded more than $125,000 in grants to 27 nonprofit organizations across the cities and towns it serves. From children’s advocacy programs and mental health services to hunger relief and vital skills training, the funding will help advance essential services that uplift lives and strengthen communities.

We’re honored to help amplify their valuable work through our Charitable Giving Fund.”
West Fargo Eats will use the grant to support the continued growth and sustainability of its food pantry.
“We are incredibly grateful for Sparklight’s generosity and support of our mission to help neighbors in our community,” said Chelsie Bormann, West Fargo Eats Director. “As the demand for assistance increases, this grant will help us expand food access by strengthening our pantry operations, outreach efforts and school partnerships — ensuring more families receive the critical support they need.”
The company’s Charitable Giving Fund focuses on initiatives that create lasting, local impact, including education and digital literacy, hunger relief and community development. Since the Fund’s inception in 2020, Sparklight has awarded more than $1 million in grants to more than 250 nonprofits that make a difference in the lives of those they serve.
