For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink,
I was a stranger and you welcomed me.
- Matthew 25

ABOUT
We have been open since 2008 as a food pantry affiliated with the Roadrunner Food Bank system. So far for 2022, we have helped an average of about 220 family units per month, giving out over 15 tons of food. September was out largest month, with 304 family units sold. The value of the food acquired to be given out since January 2022 is in excess of $22,000. This does not include donations via Food Rescue from Albertson's Grocery Stores (breads, desserts, deli items) or donated canned and dried foods, and produce.
