Summer needs: help us keep the shelves stocked
Summer is one of the hardest seasons for the families we serve. With kids home from school — and the free meals that come with it — many households feel the squeeze. Our pantry shelves empty faster than ever, and we need your help to keep them full.
Most-needed items
- Peanut butter and jelly
- Canned proteins (tuna, chicken, beans)
- Boxed meals and pasta
- Breakfast cereal and oatmeal
- Canned fruits and vegetables
- Diapers and basic toiletries
Every bag of groceries is a family that doesn't have to choose between food and rent.
Three easy ways to help
- Donate items — drop off non-perishables during our open hours. See the details on our Get Help page.
- Host a drive — rally your church, business, or neighborhood. We'll help you plan it; start on the Get Involved page.
- Give — a financial gift lets us buy exactly what's running low. Here's how to give.
Thank you for helping our neighbors through the summer. Your generosity keeps hope on the shelves.
