HEARTS UNITED FOR GOOD (HUGCLT)
FOOD ASSISTANCE
Our Food Assistance Program ensures that individuals and families in need have access to fresh, nutritious groceries every week — no questions asked. We believe that food is more than a basic need; it’s a foundation for health, stability, and dignity.
Through our free weekly pantry and mobile food distributions, we serve neighbors from all walks of life, many facing food deserts, financial hardship, or housing insecurity. Thanks to our dedicated volunteers, community partners, and generous donors, we’re able to provide culturally relevant foods, fresh produce, proteins, and pantry staples that bring comfort and connection to the table.
