The pantry is stocked through a combination of government contributions, food reclamation programs, on-site and local gardens, grants, and directly from the caring individuals, businesses, church groups, youth groups, and civic organizations through food drives and charitable contributions. Without the support of the community, the Center could not meet the ever growing demand for services. Donations from the community keep the shelves stocked and the doors open! THANK YOU!
