Our mission is to bridge the gap for individuals and families who are faced with the challenge of having enough nourishing food and educational resources available to them. Your donations help us to accomplish that mission day to day.
Some of the items we consistently need the most at our food pantry include:
Cereal
Condiments ( Salad dressing, BBQ Sauce, Ketchup, Mustard, Mayo),
Canned beans ( Black, Northern, Garbanzo)
Rice side dishes
Packaged potatoes
Baking items
Snacks (chips, granola bars, fruit snacks, etc.)
Dog and cat food
There is plenty of food available in the world. There is just a distribution issue.

School Supplies (new)
Hygiene Products (new)
Snacks (chips, granola bars, fruit snacks, etc.)

We Accept Books
One of the unique features of our food pantry has always been the library of books available for our clients to take home. Many times there isn’t enough money left in the budget to buy books for the family members, and we believe in the importance of this access.
We now accept and give away books at both of our locations! Contact us for more information.
Having access to books and educational resources can make the difference between success and failure for our kids.
