Challenging Times

As the cost of food, rent and other necessary expenses continue to rise, 

our neighbors struggling with food insecurity are

seeking our assistance more than ever before.


And the numbers don't lie...

Though we receive many donations, they go out of our Market in the blink of an eye.

For us to be able to continue to keep our shelves stocked, we rely on the generosity of the community and your continued support. We are always looking for additional ways to keep our Market shelves stocked on a daily basis.

For many, the holidays are a season of giving.


Please consider donating to ensure our neighbors and their families can enjoy meals during the month of December and throughout 2024.

We Still Have Much To Be Thankful For!

2023 Casino Night Was A Success! Thank you to our Generous Guests, Volunteers and Sponsors!

Volunteers of the Quarter

Lisa and Frank Scharff


Lisa and Frank are not only a couple, but a volunteer duo who are hardworking, and an inspiration to those around them. Dedicated to our mission, Lisa and Frank always go above and beyond for anyone who needs a helping hand. 

Both Lisa and Frank have been volunteering their time at PACS for almost three years. It began with Lisa looking for a way to give back to the community, and Frank following in his wife’s footsteps. They find it very rewarding to help those who face food insecurity get the food that they need and deserve.
