Bags of food are witnesses of God's love in several ways at South Side Mission's Benevolence Center!Serving record numbers of poor people through our three food pantries has left our shelves bare.
At the Benevolence Center 2919 W. Garden, our Harrison Homes housing project satellite office, and our RiverWest housing project satellite office, the poor can come and get a free food basket once a month.
Food baskets are designed to help a family make it through to the next paycheck. A food basket includes at least 5 pounds of meat, a bag of nonperishable food items, fresh vegetables, dairy products, and bread.
If you'd like to donate, these items are in especially short supply...
Cans of soup
Cans of beef stew, spaghetti-os, chicken & dumplings, and other "meals in a can" products
Canned vegetables
Pasta or macaroni & cheese
One pound frozen packages of ground beef
Items can be donated at the Benevolence Center at 2919 W. Garden in Peoria, Monday through Saturday from 6:30 to 3 pm or at 1127 S. Laramie 24 hours a day.
Thanks!
