Our food pantry provides free food supplies to community members who are in need of additional support. These will include a variety of non-perishable and perishable items.

The goals of this program are:

1. To enable recipients to prepare meals in their own home.
2. To provide an additional food resource in our community.
3. To reduce the stigma of using a food bank.

This service is available to clients through an agency referral.
