• Description: Hunger, homelessness, abandoned homes, drug abuse, high unemployment and crime continue to plague our community. Many residents survive on small pensions, Social Security checks, Social Security Disability benefits or Department of Human Services grants, which leave no room for emergencies, especially with the worsening economic climate and forecast. Often, a grandparent must care for grand children or a parent for a needy adult son or daughter. Our Emergency Food Program began more than 25 years ago to help meet the needs of the people in our community year-round and provide special assistance during Thanksgiving and Christmas. We do our best to alleviate the emergency food and household needs of our neighborhood. Volunteers operate our program. We depend financially on voluntary donations from our church members through monthly appeals, holiday giving from our community schools, fundraising and occasional outside sources.
