Support Services

The Lord's Food Bank does not provide services other than our food hamper and soup kitchen programs. However, we understand that finding the help you need, when you need it, can sometimes be a challenge, especially for those already experiencing the stress of financial limitations.

What we have tried to provide here is a bit of the footwork for some common areas where people need support and information. The lists are not all-inclusive, but do represent many basic areas of necessity. If you, or someone you know, is in need of any of these services, we encourage you to seek more information directly from the service providers.
