Important Announcement: The Closing of Our Long-Standing Food Pantry

After many years of serving our community, we are announcing the difficult decision to close our food pantry, effective November 24, 2025.

This decision is not made lightly. Over the years, our pantry has been supported by dedicated volunteers, generous donors, and countless neighbors and partners who believed in our mission. Together, we have provided meat, produce, bread, canned goods and countless non-perishable food items. Along with food distribution came love, comfort and connection to other support services during difficult and challenging times in the lives of individuals and families. We are deeply grateful for every person who contributed their time, resources, and heart to this work.

Unfortunately, due to escalating challenges beyond our control, we are no longer able to operate the pantry in a sustainable way. Rather than compromise the quality of care we provide, we believe closing the Food Pantry is the most responsible step forward.

What This Means for Our Community

We remain committed to ensuring that those who rely on our services are supported through this transition. We are actively connecting clients to local organizations that continue to provide food assistance.

Thank You!

To every volunteer, donor, partner organization, and community member: thank you. Your compassion has allowed us to serve thousands over the years, and the impact of your generosity will continue far beyond the closing of our doors.
