Focus Food Pantry Donation Needs

What we always need are canned meats, vegetables (except carrots, corn, green beans), and soups (regular, condensed and especially chunky), plus men’s personal hygiene items (no small soap bars from hotels) or other items that will always help us meet the needs of the poor. 

The food pantry can take donations the Tuesday between 9:30 am and 11 am, before we are open on Wednesday (2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month), or the 2nd and 4th Wednesday from 8:30 am to 11 am

You may also schedule to bring them on a date we are serving Sunday Supper from 3:15 pm to 6:00 pm

You may also send a check to be used for the food pantry, made payable to Focus Gateway City

Please contact us to schedule another date to drop off donations.

Thank you for your continued support for Focus Gateway City.  We could not exist without your help.  God bless you.
