The Rose Drive Friends Church Food Ministry exists to fight hunger in our community in Jesus’ name. Through generous donations from our church family, local supermarkets, and Second Harvest Food Bank we are able to serve hundreds of people and families a month.
Distribution Hours:
Wednesdays from 4:00-5:00 PM
Saturdays from 8:30-9:30 AM
Distribution is located in E104-105 on the ground level of the Clocktower Building.
In order to have a fair and inclusive method for distribution, we distribute through a lottery system. Check-in opens 20-25 minutes before distribution starts. Upon arrival, please check in and receive a lottery number. We will call and collect your numbers when the distribution opens. Because of this system, there is no need to arrive way ahead of time to secure earliest entry into the distribution line. If you arrive 10 minutes after distribution opens you will check in and enter distribution at the end of the lottery line. A person from each household must be present. You cannot pick up for other households. Please bring your own grocery bags for your food.
