Amazing Grace Food Pantry has met the grocery need of nearly 400 families since we opened the doors of the new facility end of March. During this short time, over 110,000 pounds of food was distributed and over 2600 box of groceries were carried to the family’s cars. The families love the new building with the covered patio with lots of produce and bread to choose from. They also comment on the large shopping area which provides a better selection to shop from and reach in cooler with milk, yogurt, butter and juice that gives more of a grocery store atmosphere. The Grand Opening in the newspapers has let more families know we’re there to help them in their time of need.

New Client Distribution Hours – Effective May 31, 2018

Tuesdays 10am – 2pm
Thursdays 6pm -8pm
Saturdays 8a – noon

We encourage the community to get involved this summer. Call to schedule a family volunteer day while the kids are out of school or adopt a shelf to keep stocked. You can also visit our Volunteer page to sign up and have our coordinator contact you at your convenience.

No time to volunteer? No problem – help by donating on line or donate a gift card from Home Depot, Lowes or Walmart to help us get plants, trees and grass for the front yard of the pantry.

The small corners of our world are better by the efforts of people like you. Thank you. I’m glad Laura mentioned this to me so I could not only support you, but more importantly give you a hug. Hope today is a roaring success.

Love, Lisa
