Our Food Pantry Needs Your Help!


 

As the weather gets warmer our need for food increases. 
 Last year we served over 7000 meals to members of our community during the Spring & Summer seasons alone. 
This year more and more families will find themselves choosing between paying the rent or buying food. 

Please help those in need by donating nutritious food for families and children.

The YWCA is the only agency in our valley that operates without income guidelines, or a limit on the number of times we can serve a household per year.  When a household is in need of food we are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week through our office and crisis helpline.

 Please Help Fill The Empty Plates In Our Community.
