Updated: 12 hours ago

As always, we are here and ready to serve whoever is in need. Our team has been working diligently on procuring food to supply our neighbors with wholesome & nutritious foods, as well as basic household necessities.
If you need help stretching your grocery budget, check our pantry hours and plan a visit.
We recognize how difficult it may be for you to visit a food pantry. We are not just a food pantry. We are a representative of a surrounding community that CARES about you!
If you are unable to leave your house, you may send a neighbor, relative or friend to pick up for you.
If you know someone in need – and they just won’t visit us; encourage them to come or just pick it up for them and take it to them.
