Our awesome volunteers provided a full grocery cart to 161 families this week along with Thanksgiving fixin’s and clients’ choice of turkey or ham. Thanks to North Texas Food Bank (@NTFB) for providing lots of Butter Lettuce and Pears on the produce delivery! We don’t forget the pets, always plenty of cat and dog food and treats available.
Thanks to you for helping 659 people in Collin County with nutritious food and peace of mind to make a Happy Thanksgiving.
Twelve McKinney Christian Middle School students and their teacher blessed our Friday by coming out to stock shelves and make up Thanksgiving meal packages. They had the pantry buzzing with energy!
New Building Update: Thank you Dallas Glass and Door for installing the storefront doors. They really make the new building professional and inviting! A big thanks to Paul G and his team from LDS Church for coming out every Saturday to hang drywall. This week was no exception – they rocked it! We’re close to texture and paint – can’t wait!!
We welcome volunteers to help finish out the new pantry building which will offer a larger shopping area for families (and so much more!). Also, if you’re a building professional, we welcome your advice… we have a vision, but we are truly working on faith with this project.

I found out about Amazing Grace Food Pantry by googling for help in Wylie. Amazing Grace Food Pantry helps my family a lot with nutritious food. All the volunteers are polite and nice. We’ve had bad experiences at other pantries where they made me feel like I was scum because I am poor. Amazing Grace Food Pantry restored my spirit by treating me with dignity.
Take the time to read some of the testimonials from clients and volunteers on our website. Volunteer or donate this year. It will bless you!
Please share this and our other posts on your Facebook timeline, tweet it out on Twitter or forward via email. Many people looking to help or looking for help don't even know that ours and other pantries exist. Let others know there's help for them out there!
