As a local organization we strive to reach out to East County residents from all walks of life regardless of race, color, gender, disability, or sexual orientation. We provide a welcoming environment for all and encourage inclusivity.
Every Saturday morning beginning at 10:00 am, we provide food for the people in and around our community of Fairview. If you or someone you know is in need of food, please swing by the East County Food Pantry located at Smith Memorial Presbyterian Church.
We partner with Oregon Food Bank and sister organizations such as Urban Gleaners and Clackamas Service Center as well as other businesses to ensure we have a lasting supply of food for the people we serve. If you would like to be a partner, please fill out the contact form below and indicate your interest.
