THE HEART BEHIND GRACE PANTRY
Faith in action.
Neighbors in mind.
We envision a place where practical help and Christian compassion come together for neighbors facing food insecurity.
The proposal for Grace Pantry centers on community engagement: inviting local churches, volunteers, businesses, and community leaders to help shape a thoughtful response to local needs.
Our hope is to build relationships that support a future pantry grounded in dignity, care, and a shared commitment to our neighbors.
Dignity for our neighbors
An aspiration to help individuals and families facing food insecurity feel respected and supported.
A community effort
A proposal built around the potential of churches, volunteers, and local partnerships working together.
CLOSE TO HOME
A heart for
West Volusia.
The intended service area is West Volusia County, Florida. The map from our proposal illustrates the area being considered.
The final service area, location, eligibility guidelines, and operating model remain to be determined.
