The NEEDS pantry has been operating for over 40 years, serving our neighbors in northeast Hamilton County. In 2024, they served 2300 families in the pantry, which continues to increase yearly. They rely on donations from schools, churches, and businesses to meet the need. This month, they are explicitly requesting Non-Perishable Food: canned peas, canned collard greens, canned pineapple, canned beef stew, and rice and pasta mix & Home and Personal Care: shampoo, pump hand soap, feminine hygiene pads, diapers (sizes 6 and 7), and laundry detergent. NEEDS donations can be dropped off in the bin under the information table in the entry foyer.
You can make donations via their Amazon Wish List. Order the items you want to donate, which will be shipped directly to NEEDS.
If this is an organization that you would like to serve further, they are looking for volunteers in the following areas:
Food pantry: Sort and stock shelves, shop for perishable food, and fulfill requests on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00 am-1:00 pm. Contact their Volunteer Coordinator.
Desk Assistant: Meet and greet their clients and process requests for financial assistance during NEEDS office hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9:00 am-1:00 pm. Contact our Volunteer Coordinator.
Donation Drives: Organize and promote a collection of canned and non-perishable food. Contact our Pantry Coordinator.
Thank you for your continued generous support.
