Mecca New Life partners with Feeding
America (a national network of Food Banks) and Catholic
Charities Food Bank of Terre Haute. Because of this,
persons needing food outside of the Southwest Parke
Community School District are asked to contact their local
food bank for their needs.
Canned goods, dry goods, a limited supply of toiletry items
and fresh produce and bread are available on Tuesday
afternoons. Periodically, frozen meat and/or entree's are
also available. When quantities are limited, those visiting
are asked to "share" what is available.
The Feeding America and Catholic Charities Mobile Food Bank
visits Mecca New Life once a month on the third Monday from
10 a.m. to noon, and anyone in need of food who lives in
the SWP school district is encouraged to come to Mecca New
Life and receive food. The Mobile Food Pantry sets
guidelines for quantities for these visits depending on
availability of food.
There is no need for those visiting the Food Pantry on
Tuesdays or the Mobile Food Pantry to provide proof of
income, First time visitors are asked to fill out a short
form verifying residency and listing contact information so
they can be contacted about opportunities for receive food
assistance in the future.
Donations of food or financial support are always welcome -
and more information is available for anyone
interested. Contact Us for more details.
