Help Local Children and Families this Summer with CAC!

Give Food, Clothes, School Supplies to Neighbors in Need

Do you want to help local children and families in need this summer but don’t know how? The Community Assistance Center (CAC) makes it easy! Give food, clothes or to the school supplies campaign and your donations will go directly to local families in need!

Food Pantry SOS

The CAC Food Pantry is running low on all items! The pantry typically runs low on food in the summer when donor groups are on vacations and less active, and requests for assistance rise to help feed children who are home from school. Please donate a can or more to help our neighbors in need.
Most needed items include:
Canned Meats, Canned Beans, Canned Vegetables, Canned Pasta Meals
Cereal, Peanut Butter, Jelly, Tomato Sauce
