Important Announcement from Rhoads To A New U 💙

After much reflection and consideration, we want to share that Rhoads To A New U will be officially dissolving under its current name and leadership.

This decision comes as our founder and executive director has made the difficult choice to step down due to personal reasons. While this chapter is coming to a close, we want to assure our community that the mission and work of this organization are not going away.

Rhoads To A New U will be undergoing a transition to new leadership and a new name, but the heart and purpose behind what we do will remain the same — serving our community, supporting those in need, and continuing the work we started together.

We are committed to making this transition as smooth as possible, and operations will continue just as they have been throughout this process. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that services and support are not interrupted in any way.

Over the past two years, this community has made an incredible impact, and we cannot thank you enough for your generosity, encouragement, and involvement. None of what we’ve accomplished would have been possible without you. 💛

Please continue to message this page if you have any questions or need assistance. We will also keep everyone updated here as the transition moves forward.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for believing in the mission, standing beside us, and helping us make a difference. Here’s to the next chapter of continuing that work under new leadership and a new name. 💙

Help Us Feed Our Neighbors: Need is the Only Requirement
​Right now, families in our community are struggling with food insecurity, and the need is more urgent than ever. Due to the recent discontinuation of expanded SNAP benefits, many households are facing immediate and significant reductions in their monthly grocery budgets. This change has created a critical gap that we must fill together.
​The challenge is immense, but the solution can be simple: your generous food donation.
​Our Mission: Food with Dignity
​At the heart of our food distribution service is the belief that accessing food should be simple and dignified. We understand that asking for help is hard enough, which is why we have eliminated the complicated paperwork, invasive questions, and financial barriers often associated with food assistance.
​If you need food, you get food—it's that simple.
​Focused on Need, Not Income
​We do not require bank statements, pay stubs, or any form of income verification. Our process respects privacy and focuses purely on addressing immediate hunger. The only information we ask for is:
​A name (for check-in)
​The town you live in (to ensure we serve our local area)
​Your household size (to pack appropriate amounts)
​This minimal information helps us serve our community efficiently, but it is never used to screen for income. Need is the only qualification.
​Your Donation is Immediate Relief
​Your donation directly supports this dignity-first approach, especially as more neighbors turn to us during this budget crisis. Every can, box, or monetary gift ensures that when a neighbor walks through our doors, they leave with nutritious food without the stress of proving their struggle. You are not just giving food; you are giving assurance, privacy, and immediate relief to local families.
​Please donate today. Help us keep our shelves stocked and ensure every person who reaches out for help is met with kindness and immediate support. Please send a message so we can tell you how you can make an impact on the immense food insecurity in our very own neighborhoods.

📢 Important Reminder from Rhoads To A New U Food Pantry

We want to extend our deepest apologies to our community for the unexpected closure of our food pantry today, Thursday, October 23rd.

Due to preparations for the City Hall Haunted Halls event happening this Friday (tomorrow), our hall has been decorated and set up for the festivities, which prevents us from safely operating the pantry.

We truly understand how important our pantry is to many families each week, and we deeply regret any inconvenience this may cause. Please know this decision was not made lightly.

We’ll be back open for regular distribution next week and can’t wait to serve you again! ❤️

Thank you for your understanding, patience, and continued support.

Due to events being held in the municipal building, we will not be holding food distribution on 10/23/25.

10/16/2025

Today, we provided food to 116 people. Last Thursday, 103, Three Thursdays ago, 132.
Nothing feels as good as helping others.

To continue to help our community, we need donations. Be it of non-perishable foods, or money.
Our success in battling local food insecurity is a battle for a village, because it takes a village.
Please consider donating to help feed the folks you call neighbor ❤️
If 100 people donate a dollar, that is $100 towards food and that can stretch a long way.
