Food Pantry
Our Food Pantry provides nutritious, shelf-stable groceries and fresh produce to seniors and families facing food insecurity in our community. We believe that access to healthy food is a basic human right, and our pantry is designed to offer both dignity and choice to those we serve. Clients can visit during designated pantry hours to select items that suit their family’s needs, helping stretch tight budgets and improve overall well-being. Through partnerships with local food banks, grocers, and donors, we are able to keep our shelves stocked and serve a growing number of households. Whether it’s a temporary hardship or an ongoing struggle, our pantry is here to support those who need it most.

Community Events
We believe in building strong community ties, and our Community Events bring people together in celebration, support, and service. Throughout the year, we host events such as neighborhood cookouts, resource fairs, back-to-school drives, and health and wellness workshops. These gatherings not only meet immediate needs but also foster a sense of belonging and solidarity among attendees. By working with local partners and volunteers, we’re able to provide fun, informative, and accessible events that uplift spirits and strengthen community bonds. Every event is an opportunity to connect, engage, and empower.

Holiday Toy Drive
The Holiday Toy Drive is one of our most heartwarming initiatives, bringing joy to children and relief to families during the holiday season. Each year, we collect new, unwrapped toys to distribute to families in need, ensuring that every child has a reason to smile on Christmas morning. This program lightens the financial burden many parents face during the holidays and creates memorable moments for children who might otherwise go without. With the help of generous donors, volunteers, and community partners, our Toy Drive reaches dozens of local families, spreading hope and holiday cheer across our community.

Incarcerated Re-Entry Support
Our Incarcerated Re-Entry Support program is designed to assist individuals transitioning back into society after incarceration. We provide essential services such as identification assistance, clothing packages, transportation help, and referrals for housing, employment, and substance abuse counseling. Re-entry can be a difficult and overwhelming journey, but with the right support system in place, it becomes a pathway to transformation and success. By partnering with local agencies and providing holistic case management, we aim to reduce recidivism and empower formerly incarcerated individuals to rebuild their lives with dignity, purpose, and hope.
