- Description: Western Wake Crisis Ministry was established in 1983 by area churches and community members who were concerned about a few local families in need. We have grown to be an important outreach that serves over 200 families in our community each month. Many of these families have never needed help before. We are glad to provide a helping hand to residents who are having a temporary or long term crisis that impacts their ability to provide for their basic needs. Community Food Pantry & Nutrition: Visitors to our pantry are offered the opportunity to "shop" for the items they need, free of charge. Volunteers are available to shop for residents who need extra assistance. This food pantry model promotes dignity, offers supportive social interaction & reduces food waste. We partner with the Simple Gifts Community Garden & NCSU Nutrition Department to offer healthy food options and education.
