About Us
Our Volunteers
Our volunteers are the the hands and feet of this ministry, showing up with kindness, patience, and a willingness to give. Whether organizing, lifting, greeting, or praying, every role matters. In serving side by side, we not only provide for physical needs but also build connections that strengthen and uplift both those who give and those who receive.
Our History
On November 1, 1982, with one bag of food, one bag of clothing, and a heart to help others, Diane and Nan started their ministry in a single-car garage. As the need grew, they knew God had placed a calling on their lives. From those humble beginnings, Nourishment for the Needy was born. More than 40 years later, we continue to serve our community from a dedicated facility, carrying on God's work of compassion and care.
Our Mission
As a faith based ministry, we believe that caring for others is a sacred calling. This pantry is more than a place of provision - it is a place of hope, where faith is lived out in action. We focus on leading people to a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. We uphold the dignity of all who come to us, offering compassionate and immediate assistance for physical crises. We also minister to the whole person by providing spiritual care and prayer alongside food and clothing support.
People and Purpose
With grateful hearts, we serve together to meet a simple but urgent need: nourishment. Each bag of groceries represents more than food - it carries dignity, compassion, and the reminder that no one in our community walks alone. Through these small acts of service, we reflect the love we've been given and share it freely with others.
