Preserving the right to adequate food

Having enough to eat is a basic human necessity. We provide emergency food supplies and connections to community-based resources to assist the hungry in our community during times of crisis.

People also have a right to their dignity. That’s why we operate as a Choice Pantry. This means families can select culturally appropriate food that best meets their needs, which minimizes waste and contributes to a more compassionate atmosphere. As evidence of our effectiveness, the Hunger Task Force repeatedly awards our pantry with its highest rating.

“The things that the people at the MCC do matter so much. I’m so thankful for their help.”

– Sheila, Emergency Food Pantry recipient
