The mission of the Bethel Hearts for Souls Outreach Center food pantry is to offer healthy, nutritious food at no cost to Neighborhood residents and Community in need, while always treating our clients with the highest level of dignity and respect and Financial Education. In addition to the unemployed and homeless, there is a large number of working poor and elderly residents whose monthly incomes do not cover their expenses. These individuals and families earn a minimum wage or are retired on fixed minimum incomes. Particularly hard hit are low income families and single parents with young children.
According to our local census, one in six residents' falls below the poverty level. Even more distressing is that the rate of poverty is 50% higher in our area than in the general city population.
