Our Vision

External link opens in new tab or windowWoman with baskets of groceries Our vision is simple, but basic: to treat everyone needing assistance as we would treat one of our family members in need. Our goal is to provide our clients each month with a seven-day supply of nutritious food, personal hygiene items, and paper and household supplies. We have regular quantities of a variety of meat, chicken, dairy, fresh fruit, vegetables, bread, rolls, and baked goods to distribute to our recipients. Through the generosity of local retailers and restaurants, we are at times able to provide fried chicken, pizza, and soup. We assist individuals and families for as long as there is a need.

How Do Our Recipients Find Us?

During fundraising calls to local area residents and businesses, we encourage our donors to refer neighbors and friends in need. We also urge those we call who are in need themselves to come and see us. We are collaborating with local area businesses, churches, schools, and social clubs to hold food drives, which also raises our visibility in the community. We are active in the communities we serve and issue press releases to local news outlets so the community will learn of our availability.
