Assistance
Our Daily Bread Food Bank provides food assistance to residents of the Lake Whitney area, including Aquilla, Blum and Whitney. We will always serve new clients the first time they come to see us. If you are a new client, come to our location during our regular hours and we will help.
The goal of the Food Bank is to provide one week's worth of food for each family member every 30 days. You do not have to receive food stamps to be eligible.
If possible, bring an ID for each member of your family plus proof of residency such as a utility bill. But even if you don't have these, come anyway and we will help you get started.
Other Assistance
If you need help with things other than food, the Lake Whitney Ministerial Alliance may be able to help you with
- Benevolence for help with clothing, utilities, prescriptions and transportation
- School Supplies given to teachers for students in need from Kindergarten through high school
- Joint Committee for Christmas (JCC) for help with meals, toys and clothing before Christmas
- Chaplaincy for nursing home church services, community fellowship, and kids' events like Easter egg hunts and Trunk or Treat
Note that the Food Bank will be closed in 2023 on holidays Sep 4, Nov 22, Nov 23, and Dec 25 until Jan 3, 2024.
