Any non-perishable food items are appreciated, but here are a few ideas:
- Canned goods like fruit, vegetables, and meat.
- Dried Beans and Lentils.
- Pasta and Rice.
- Broth and Spices.
Our sponsor locations are:
- Guaranty Bank & Trust on Lamar & the Loop
- South Main Iron
- Love & Bagels
- Paris Coffee Company
- Nutrition Planet
- Toyota of Paris.
Items can be dropped off from now until July 31st.
The clients we serve are living on a very limited budget. In fact, many have a monthly income of less than $1000. They have to pay their rent, utilities, and insurance, while having enough for food, gas, and other expenses. That’s why, in addition to providing each client with a hot meal, Monday-Friday, we try to help wherever we can.
“We’d like to thank our amazing sponsors for their help, as well as the community as a whole. We couldn’t do this without you.”
