Our food distribution days are Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday between 12:30PM and 2:30PM.

You will be provided basic cleaning materials including protective rubber gloves, dust masks, and cleaning tools. You may also bring your own products if you prefer to use biodegradable and non-toxic options; i.e. Simply Green.

Community Meal:
On Tuesday evenings we serve a community meal between 5:30PM and 6:30PM. Volunteers help with serving a quality meal to the most vulnerable members of our community. We also welcome others who would like to join us for an evening with their neighbors. Preparations begin at 9AM with making salads, baking bread or desserts, cooking for dinner and can extend until 7PM with serving dinner and clean-up. Volunteers may work a few hours or the entire day as desired.

We would like to add a more homey and relaxing feel to the lobby so that clients can feel welcomed in our space while still being able to utilize the room for storage.
