You helped us serve 1,325 people in our Food Pantry last month. Your non-perishable food and toiletries donations make life better for people in need!

THANK YOU!
$59.50 buys 35 pounds of food per person and provides a 10-day supply!
Unforeseen life events such as loss of a job or a serious health diagnosis can move a thriving family from self-sufficiency to food insecurity. When you donate to The Caring Place Food Pantry, you are giving a helping hand to families while they get back on their feet!

We have several shifts to choose from.

"The food that we provide is the only way some people are able to make it. Some have lost their jobs. Some don't even own a can opener. You realize how much we take for granted when you work in a food pantry." Chip Geil, Food Pantry Volunteer.

Great News!

The Caring Place has received Platinum level designation from Central Texas Food Bank. This designation means a 33% reduction to the handling fee charged by CTFB to The Caring Place for the food it orders to feed hungry families.
