Simple Gestures. Full Hearts. We help our neighbors meet their basic needs so we can all grow. If you live outside of our service area, still call.

Since it’s founding in 1976, SACA Food Shelf and Thrift Store has remained committed to providing basic needs services to Columbia Heights, Fridley, Hilltop, Spring Lake Park and NE Minneapolis. We have developed systems using community input so that we can provide the best care possible in order to accomplish our mission of providing food and resources to those in need, while empowering dignity and independence to those we serve in our community. To begin accessing the services you may need from SACA, call 763.789.2444 to setup an appointment. We will always feed you! Make a difference in your community by making a donation to SACA. Each $1 donated equals 10lbs of food! NOTE: The Thrift Store is current closed and we are unable to accept items.

SACA relies on partnerships with other non-profits, organizations, and businesses to make our work possible! And this summer, we launched a very exciting partnership!

We were THRILLED to partner with Anita at Shining Light Farm through Second Harvest Heartland's local farm program. Anita stocked our market with fresh, local produce and African vegetables throughout the growing season. Anita's vegetables provided a delicious and nutritious connection to home for our African neighbors.

This partnership provides a steady income for local farmers like Anita and access to fresh, local, and culturally relevant foods for our neighbors. It's a win-win for everyone and we hope to continue and grow the program next year!

Roof Update: It is LOUD today! 🙉 Our market and thrift store will be open as usual today from 12 pm - 4 pm, but it will be noisy as crews are working on the roof.

Thank you for your understanding as we move through this project! 👷🏼‍♀️
