AGFP served 110 families this week. Along with providing nutritious groceries to 423 people, Target blessed the community with a large donation of new pillows to provide each family. Another volunteer donated a case of shampoo. Still others donated sugar and oil.
Things like these; sugar, pillows and hygiene products are such a special treat for families struggling to make ends meet.
Your prayers, hard work and contributions to support this pantry make a huge impact on the lives of others, both to the families receiving food and to the volunteers helping to sort and distribute products.
New Building Update: Next step is floor treatment, then framing. While this gets done, electric will be run to the building, making way for exterior flatwork. Stay tuned for updates on these and so many other aspects of the new building… pictures are coming soon! Want to help? GREAT! Please call (972) 292-7241 to leave a voicemail message for callback or use our Contact page.
Wes has a family of 3, with additional 3 grandchildren during the summer months.
He suffered a broken neck 20 years ago which left him partially paralyzed but was able to work delivering pizza for a long time. He lost his job 5 years ago due to his disability and was without food until he found Amazing Grace Food Pantry to meet this need. His condition as declined this year, one leg is now powerless.
With the pantry’s new building being ADA compliant, Wes has easy access to shop for groceries.
