Providing food and hope for a better tomorrow, stronger community

We know life can be tough. We can help.

One in five people within our community are food insecure and don’t know where their next meal will come from – or the one after that. Many have limited access to fresh foods such as fruits, vegetables and dairy and without reliable transportation, options are limited or unavailable. In our community where comfortable lifestyles appear to be the norm, there are individuals and families who could use a little help. Their stories are diverse, but the need is real. Won’t you help?

What our clients have to say…

Very kind staff and they definitely hook it up. We went in right at closing time because an accident threw us in a little later than expected and they were very polite about us being so late. I don’t know the times and stuff but make sure you have ID and proof of address available. They are pretty strict about that. Their setup is actually very organized too!

Very nice people who treat everyone there with nothing but friendliness and respect and certainly better quality that you can actually eat and feel good about as opposed to other food banks.
