Our doors are open on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, from 10am – noon; and in the evening on the 2nd Tuesday of each month from 7-8pm. We are housed in the lower level of the St Teresa Center, of St John's church. We are fortunate enough to be supported by various area churches, and other service oriented organizations such as the Lions, Kiwanis’s, the Rotaries, and local scout troops; as well as the local chamber of commerce from whom we get donations of time, money and food. We have NO paid employees; our volunteers not only give their time, but also donate the use of their own vehicles, at no cost, to pick up grocery orders, bread, and supplies; then do intake, stock, re-pack, and deliver food stuffs to clients’ cars. With the help of those same volunteers, in the last year we have been able to help over 1235 households that included more than 2140 adults and 1400 children by handing out 105,000+ lbs of food we purchased, as well as 37,500+ lbs of goverment commodity foods. We are strictly a grass roots food pantry; providing non-perishable supplemental food to members of our community who are in need. Since we are a completely volunteer organization, we are able to spend the bulk of our monies for groceries, which we capitalize on by buying from a bulk discount grocery store. As always, donations of non-perishable food items, laundry detergent, personal care items, diapers, and of course, cash, are always welcomed.
