🚨 ROCK HOUSE FOOD PANTRY NEEDS OUR COMMUNITY'S HELP! 🚨

❤️ Our shelves need YOU! ❤️

We have hit an unexpected challenge at the Rock House Food Pantry. We are currently unable to get canned goods from our food bank supplier, and that leaves a HUGE gap in the food we are able to provide to the families who depend on us.

But here's what I know about our community... when there is a need, Decatur SHOWS UP! ❤️

🥫 WE NEED CANNED GOODS! 🥫

- Canned vegetables
- Canned fruits
- Canned soups
- Canned meats (tuna, chicken, etc.)
- Canned beans
- Ravioli, spaghetti, and other canned meals

Every single can makes a difference!

The Rock House Food Pantry isn't just about putting food on shelves. It's about making sure a parent doesn't have to choose between paying a bill and feeding their children. It's about helping our elderly neighbors stretch their fixed incomes. It's about reminding families facing difficult times that they are not alone.

We cannot do this without YOU.

📍 Rock House Food Pantry – Decatur Cares

🕒 Pantry Hours:
Wednesday: 3:00–6:00 PM
Sunday: 1:00–4:00 PM

🙏 Churches, businesses, organizations, families, and individuals — would you consider hosting a canned food drive or picking up a few extra cans during your next grocery trip?

We don't need one person to do everything. We just need a whole lot of people willing to do something.

❤️ Because when a community comes together, empty shelves don't have to stay empty.

Please SHARE this post and help us spread the word!

Together, we can keep feeding our neighbors.
