Today, the Sheriff’s Office collaborated with the Barrow County Cooperative Benevolence Ministry (BCCBM) to assist individuals facing food insecurities. BCCBM runs the Barrow County Food Pantry and offers a monthly outdoor food distribution at Holly Hill Mall.

The outdoor food distribution occurs on the fourth Thursday of each month. This service is provided free of charge to those in need, funded by donations from local churches and various organizations.

The Sheriff’s Office is blessed to be able to sponsor this month's outdoor food distribution service. Our team also enjoyed participating in the food distribution alongside BCCBM this morning.
If you or your organization would like more information on how to become a sponsor, please visit the links below or contact Sandra Alred at [email protected].

A huge shout out to Stoney Creek Worship Center located at 385 Pleasant Hill Church Rd. in Winder for holding a Peanut Butter and Jelly Drive to benefit the Barrow County Food Pantry.
Their donation will greatly benefit our Feeding Families program which serves Barrow County students that are experiencing food insecurity.
