Crooked Creek Food Pantry

Crooked Creek Food Pantry is a drive-thru pantry working to eliminate hunger while building relationships to support the needs of the families and persons it serves. One of the most amazing things about CCFP is that it is a client choice food pantry - this means that clients have the ability to select for themselves among fruits, meats, vegetables, dairy, and available hygiene items. This structure respects the dignity of each client as they provide for themselves and their families.

Even more amazing is the fact that the CCFP needs 150 volunteers each WEEK in order to operate and continue to serve thousands of clients in Pike & Washington Townships. YOU can make a difference by donating your time. Click HERE to visit the sign up genius and get started today!


Hub for Hope | Diaper Pantry

We want to take a moment to say THANK YOU for all of your support of the Hub for Hope Diaper Pantry during our fundraiser earlier this year. Together we raised $85,000! It is such a huge accomplishment and we want to celebrate the way that our church community came together to make this possible.

Your effort and support of this initiative is especially appreciated as diaper need continues to grow in our community. In the last 18 months, we have had over 200 unique clients at our diaper distributions and over 55% have returned to distributions 2 or more times. We are also distributing diapers through other channels in our community including Crooked Creek Food Pantry and Nora Food Pantry. We have distributed a total of well over 5000 bundles and counting!

We will need your continued support as we continue to grow this ministry. There are 2 main areas where you can plug-in and get involved:

  • Sign up for a shift at the diaper pantry or donate food items! We need people to volunteer during our distributions on the first Tuesday and the third Saturday of each month. Tasks include inventory management and welcoming and meeting with clients. During distributions we also have light snacks available for clients to enjoy which is made possible by your generous donations. You can find information on both of these needs on our sign up genius HERE.
  • Become a monthly donor to the diaper pantry! Following the diaper drive earlier this year, we discovered that we currently have 37 monthly donors! These monthly donations range from $8-$100 for a total of $1000/month! This means that we are supporting an additional 10 babies every single month. If you would like to help contribute to these monthly donations, you can set up a recurring donation HERE.

Again, thank you for your continued support of the Hub for Hope Diaper Pantry. You are making a very real difference in the lives of our neighbors.
