At The Center, a warm meal is the essence of our services and the heart in all of us. With the help of our amazing group of volunteers and community partners, we consistently provide nutritious meals to those who need them most. Our clients rely on us, as often it may be the only meal they have all day. Plus we make sure they have fresh ingredients to see them through the week. 

 

It's all about coming together to ensure our clients have what they need to thrive.

PANTRY

Many clients at The Center struggle to afford necessities such as food. Each is entitled to a monthly emergency "food bag" with essentials not covered by food stamps. Our pantry stays stocked thanks to Fulfill food bank, individuals, schools, places of worship, and local restaurants.

Meals to Go

Our Meals-to-Go Program offers frozen, home-cooked meals to those without kitchen access. We need your help to keep our freezer stocked year-round so we can continue to provide meals and love!

Visiting Cooks

Our Visiting Cooks program relies on volunteer visiting chefs to prepare meals for residents. We're always seeking support from individuals, families, youth groups, school clubs, churches, and temples to participate. On average we have 10-15 clients and residents join in a fun and festive meal prepared with heart to feed their soul.
