Food Security Team
Our Purpose
Through dedicated service and partnership, the UUCY Food Security Team helps to lessen the plight of food insecurity in our local community. |
|
Our UUCY Food Security Team:
- Partners with Our Daily Bread to make casseroles and serve every other month, and has an ongoing collection box in the Lobby to collect needed goods.
- Works with the UUCY Food Pantry Garden to grow and donate fresh produce to St. Paul’s Food Pantry.
Our Daily Bread (ODB)
Our Daily Bread (ODB), is a local soup kitchen on S. George St. near College Ave., and our involvement to it is UUCY's longest running Social Justice commitment. The commitment started when members of UUCY contacted ODB, found an appropriate recipe, and began supporting ODB. Today, we honor that commitment by making and serving casseroles six times a year, on the second Wednesday of odd-numbered months.

Future dates for our commitment to ODB are

Aluminum pans for the casseroles are provided, and aprons for those that help serve as well. We are always looking to expand the number of people that can either prepare casseroles and/or helping serve. Please contact Don and Mary Beth Callow at [email protected] if you would like to be added to our email distribution list or have any questions.

Food Pantry Garden
The Food Pantry Garden provides fresh organic vegetables for those who have limited access to fresh produce. A dedicated group of volunteers gardens the plot, and the food from that plot is donated to the St. Paul's Food Pantry. To find out how you can help in the UUCY Food Pantry Garden, contact Karen W. |
