God’s Food Pantry and Community Outreach Inc. which has been located for the past nine years at 430 E. Broad Street in Smithville has moved temporarily to Dogwood Plaza, Unit A, 1225 S. Congress Blvd., Smithville. This move was necessitated by the sale of the building and an increased rental fee of $2,500.00 monthly.
Given the space limitations at the Dogwood Plaza site, there will be a modification in one of the operations. “We will continue food deliveries on a twice a month basis to the 100 plus medically frail, elderly and/or disabled individuals. In addition, homeless and emergency requests and issues will be addressed on an as needed basis be it for food or other special assistance. However, the twice a month general pantry will be disrupted for a short term that is, until a larger space is located,” said spokesperson Pat Zornow.
If you are someone who attended the general pantries and there is need for food, please call the pantry and leave a message requesting assistance. The pantry phone number is (615)- 597-4540.
