Oak Grove UMC’s Share the Love Food Pantry Ministry 

​

Donations are distributed to the community through our Community Meals drive-thru Program every Wednesday from 5:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.​

 

We are in partnership with the Foodbank’s Rescue Relief program, which means we are allowed to receive food donated by local grocery stores. Oak Grove volunteers follow the Foodbank guidelines, keep specific records, and submit monthly reports.

 

We’re inviting the community to donate to the program. Food collection bins are located outside on the south side of the building (drive-thru lane at the covered portico) for collecting donations.

​​

What food you CAN donate to Oak Grove UMC’s Food Pantry?​

 

Any food that is “shelf-stable” or nonperishable.  Items that can be kept for months and won't go bad.

​

What not to donate:

• Expired food, only donate food that hasn’t reached its “use by” or “sell-by” date.

• Food with packaging concerns: food with damaged packaging such as dented or bloated cans, packaging that has been opened.

• Items requiring refrigeration.
