St. MAM Provides Positive Change

Nutritious Food

Through partnerships with Dare to Care, local grocers, USDA, and community organizations, St. MAM provides a first-rate food pantry, which offers fresh produce, breads, eggs, dairy, and meat, along with organic and specialty diet options. We also provide monthly senior commodity boxes and deliveries to our home-bound neighbors. And because everyone deserves a wonderful holiday, St. MAM also provides Thanksgiving meal baskets.
