Food Pantry / Utility Support

For Emergency Assistance (Food Pantry & Electric and Natural Gas Bill Assistance) please call (540) 548-1631 for program details or come by on Thursdays between 9:30 and noon. You can qualify for food every 30 days and utility assistance once in a 12 month period. Utility assistance is on a first come, first served basis ONLY.

A dedicated team of Peace UMC members staff the food pantry to distribute food to hungry families Thursday mornings. When our resources are not available (because of bad weather or other circumstances) we provide information so that families can find other local resources. See also FredFood.org.

The Utility Support folks also field calls on Thursday mornings for utilities assistance. Due to limited funding, we can usually help only a small fraction of the people who need help with gas & electric bills. This assistance is on a first come, first served basis ONLY. Assistance is only available once in a 12 month period.
