Thank You National Guard!
What an amazing group of service men and women! Their hearts to help others and serve our Nation and our Community is very much appreciated! They’re scheduled to help through the end of April on Thursdays and Saturdays. Our Client families really enjoyed the help and the flowers along with their 120 pounds of food for the week.
COVID-19 has effected so many more families now out of work and struggling to put food on the table. Amazing Grace Food Pantry serves families in need in Collin County. In the first 14 weeks of 2020, 998 families have received weekly nutritional food, that’s 4252 people with a little less stress in their lives during these uncertain times. We’re glad to serve to ease the burden by providing nutritional meals for their family.

Casey had a stroke 2 years ago, leaving him disabled and without a car. He doesn’t want to impose on anyone to call for help. He, instead, uses a walker to go to Amazing Grace Food Pantry 8 miles away for food. Often passersby will give him a lift and another client or pantry volunteer will take him home. Recently, Deputy Acosta gave Casey a lift to pantry and waited till he finished shopping then took him home. We can’t praise our Collin County Sherriff’s office enough for caring for each member of our community.
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!
