2021 distributions will be held Thursdays beginning at 9am by appointment.
At Big Reach Center of Hope, our goal is to see those in crisis move toward self-sufficiency by meeting both tangible and spiritual needs while recognizing the dignity and beauty of every person.
WE PROVIDE:
- Prayer and Encouraging Relationships
- Food Assistance
- Clothing Assistance
- Connections to Community Resources
Our mission is to help individuals and families in crisis experience life-changing hope. Food assistance is one of the ways we strive to help our neighbors. Our distributions include products that have been donated or rescued from local restaurants and bakeries. As always, we will do our best to consistently share God’s blessings with every registered household.
