What We Do

Serving grocery relief to our community weekly through a variety of food giveaways.

Mondays from 10-11am (or until supplies run out), giveaways of perishable goods (dairy, meat, produce, deli, and baked foods,) are available to any who have need on a weekly basis.
For our perishable and other additional popup giveaways, we utilize a texting service to notify all those who opt in to be informed as timely as possible.

“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,”
Matthew 25:35
