Southview Community Church partners with Western Fairfax Christian Ministries Food Pantry

Southview Community Church is hosting an evening of worship to celebrate and benefit the Western Fairfax Christian Ministries Food Pantry (WFCM). The evening features the Southview Worship Band and admissions is a food item for the Food Pantry. Our goal is to raise 14 tons of food in 2016. We are well on our way.

Needed items for this month are cooking oil, canned fruit, carrots, potatoes, onions, apples, oranges, pears, squash, zucchini, cauliflower, broccoli.

The WFCM Food Pantry provides donated food to individuals and families in need, as well as USDA surplus food. Our pantry is “client choice” meaning that clients make their own selections from the pantry shelves. The pantry includes non-perishable items as well as bread; produce, meat, and dairy items as available; baby food and diapers; and personal care items that are all donated by the community.

According to the WFCM website, "In FY 2015 we served 889 households with 32,776 bags of free groceries. Families can visit the pantry up to once per month."

This is a great cause for our community. Southview is a community church. We meet at 9am and 11am every Sunday and you can bring food during weekday office hours. Find out more at http://southview.org
