Great place for the needy in search of services including food boxes and hot food (but limited) days and times.

Good food shelf and services. The people that work here are mostly cool. Only complaint would be when I went to get my mail one day one of the workers some how cracked my brand new license. I can't afford to get another one so I have to hope I can keep it whole for a few years. Kinda a pain as it took me two years to get it back.

I have to say this is one of the best food banks I've ever been to. You get to pick your own stuff you're not limited to how many you get and it's great stuff. It changes from minute to minute what's in there and there seems to be a good variety of almost anything including plants I got a basil plant today. I have not tried the other services but they have a lot of other services also the only thing that's bad is that the market is NOT HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE !!!

I volunteer here occasionally and love that members of the community are given respect and help when they need it. They are provided emergency food in a grocery store atmosphere and encouraged to get what they need for a week. They also have clothing, showers, hot meals, access to a medical appointment and friendship when they need it most. I would encourage everyone to give and receive from this community center.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.
