Today is a bittersweet day.
Today we turned the keys of our food pantry over to CF Spring City. Cumberland Fellowship will begin serving food as soon as they have everything set up.
Check out their page CF Spring City to keep an eye out for postings about food giveaways.
We have truly enjoyed helping our community since 2014. Thank you to all the volunteers and supporters over the years. We could not have done it without you.
Last year we served 285,500 pounds of food to Spring City, Evensville, and Grandview Residents. We look forward to seeing how CF positively impacts our community.
