Open to everyone
What we do
We try to provide dignity for all people. Everyone that comes in fills out a simple form and no ID is required. There is a choice of the different food items that are available each week. If necessary, sometimes we refer them to another agency which can provide a specific request. Every client is viewed as unique. We try to serve our clients respectfully and with patience.
Our Clothes Closet has gently used clothing for children, men, and women. We carry some dishes, tableware, sometimes diapers, detergent, shampoo, and personal care items.
Our volunteers also make quilts for sale. The proceeds go back into the Community Service Center to buy food.
WE ARE AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY PROVIDER.
What we don't do
Unfortunately, we do not deliver. We also do not give assistance for rent, travel expenses, or lodging.
