Help us raise $40,000 for our Mobile Pantry Ministry
Raising funds to purchase a pickup to pull the Mobile Pantry

The PACS Mobile Food Pantry needs you! The mobile pantry has been going out to eight locations for the past few years helping reduce travel burden for low-income families and individuals who are already strapped for time and money. The current vehicle that is pulling the Mobile Pantry is not adequate for the load. We are in desperate need of a pick up that can pull the trailer to each location. Our goals is to raise $40,000! And we need your help to reach our goal to purchase a pickup. Any amount will help reach the goal! Just write "Mobile Truck" on your donation. Thank you in advance for your consideration and donation
