We are a nonprofit organization focused on helping make our community a better, happier place. Our volunteers distribute protein, grain products, canned goods and fresh produce to those in our community who need our support.
Our Mission
How We're Helping
How We're Helping
We offer our clients basic groceries on a weekly basis. Our hope is that eventually they will no longer need our services. Until that time, we will continue to serve their needs with dignity and respect.
We reach out to all members of our community and receive far more
than we give.
Thank You
