Serving humbles the heart and strengthens families who serve together. Get involved.

We’re getting ready for our next Oceana County Mobile Food Pantry with Feeding America West Michigan at the Oceana County Fairgrounds on Friday, June 19, and we could use a few more helping hands.

These evenings are powered by volunteers who show up ready to serve with kindness and care. Together, we help make sure families leave with fresh food and the support of their community behind them.

Distribution begins at 5:00 PM.
Volunteers arrive between 4:00–4:30 PM.

This distribution is supported by the Urgent Needs Fund of the Community Foundation for Oceana County helping strengthen food access throughout Oceana County.

If you’ve got a couple of hours and a heart for serving your neighbors, we’d love to have you.

When volunteers show up, community resiliency grows.

Feeling blessed to have been able to help out locally in Evart, MI the last couple days with Samaritan’s Purse. Always a humbling experience and yet fun with friends (new, old, from near and far) doing the work God has called us too. We love that we can help people in some of their hardest times and lessen the burden of disasters recovery for them.
