St. Stephen’s CARE Center Food Pantry

At St. Stephen’s CARE Center, we welcome our neighbors with Compassion, Aid, Respect, and Empowerment—the values on which our center was founded. We’re here to provide basic needs and restore dignity to those facing hardship.

 

Clothing Closet

Our Clothing Closet offers individuals and families the opportunity to browse for:

  • Work attire
  • School clothes
  • Everyday wear

Just like a retail store, clients can select the clothing they need—but check out at no cost, preserving dignity and providing empowerment.

  • Canned and dry goods

  • Meat and poultry
  • Bread and pastries
  • Fresh, organic produce from our St. Phocas Garden
