Food Pantry
Description: Our Food Pantry operates on the last Sunday of each month, providing nutritious, non-perishable food items to individuals and families in need. With future plans to expand into larger space for daily service, we are dedicated to ensuring no one in our community goes hungry. We distribute a variety of food options, including fresh produce, dairy products, and pantry staples, depending on availability.
Future Plans: "We envision opening a seperate pantry to facilitate daily operations to better meet the growing needs of our community."
Essential Goods Distribution
Description: "We understand that food is not the only necessity for a healthy life. Our Essential Goods Distribution program provides hygiene products, cleaning supplies, and other household essentials to support the well-being and dignity of the individuals and families we serve. Items such as toiletries, soap, detergent, and feminine hygiene products are included in our distributions."
Impact: "These items make a significant difference for families struggling to make ends meet, helping them maintain a sense of normalcy and cleanliness.

The event includes special activities for children, holiday-themed meal boxes, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere for everyone.
