THE FOOD PANTRY

FIRST BAPTIST MISSION

MEETING NEEDS.
SHARING HOPE.

Hope Collective partners with God’s Pantry to serve families in Whitley County through our Food Pantry and Backpack Ministry. Together, we provide essential food and resources, helping families and children thrive.

<b>Our Food Pantry</b>

Our Food Pantry

Each month, our Food Pantry supports nearly 90 families facing food insecurity. Distribution happens on the third Wednesday of every month from 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM, where volunteers provide groceries and necessities with care and dignity.

This ministry is led by our Food Pantry Board, but there are many ways you can get involved — helping during the week to organize and prepare, or joining us on distribution day. Your time and service make a real difference in the lives of our neighbors.

Note for recipients: An appointment is required to receive items from the Food Pantry. Please call the church office for more information.

<b>Backpack Ministry</b>

Backpack Ministry

Our Backpack Ministry provides food for children to take home on weekends, ensuring they have meals even when school is out. This program runs alongside our Food Pantry efforts and relies on volunteers to pack, organize, and distribute the backpacks.

Whether it’s a one-time help or regular commitment, serving here allows you to directly impact children and families in need, reflecting the hope and love of Jesus in our community.
