Testimonials from Some of Our Neighbors in Need

“Because of the food I receive here, I can afford to pay for my car, because I have a car, I can keep my job, because I can keep my job, I can pay my rent.”

“The same food we bought a year ago is now double the price. Our rent went up 10%…everything is so much more expensive and adding so much stress to our lives. The Cupboard relieves some of that stress.”

“Every month, I have to stretch my money to pay my bills and thank God I can come here. They make a huge difference in my life.”

“My first time was such a great experience! Such a blessing. They gave me a great variety of healthy food; I couldn’t believe it. They were so nice and made me feel so comfortable…What a blessing.”
