It is our mission to reach and help all those in need and to become a beacon of hope in our community.

SAFPARC has a board of directors and elected officers. Members of our board represent Zion Lutheran, the Church on the Hill, Sacred Heart, Hope Community Church, and other local churches and Safe Haven.

Share the Bounty

Hunger Prevention Program

A hunger prevention program running July through October that allows area gardeners to donate extra home-grown fruits and vegetables to those in need. Gardeners bring their produce to drop-off sites in Shawano County where it is distributed to those who can use it.

It's a simple program. No income requirements and no paperwork! All varieties of fruits and vegetables are accepted in quantities both large and small. Produce should be reasonable clean. Containers are provided on-site. This is a "win-win" situation because gardeners' produce will not go to waste, and recipients get healthy food at no cost!

Share the Bounty

We train people for employment and work with court ordered community services. We want to give those wishing to serve the opportunity to work directly with those in need.

Volunteers and food donations are always needed and greatly appreciated. If you are interest in becoming a volunteer, please fill out the form below.

Hours

Mon - Thurs: 8:15 am-10:30 am, and Wednesday 3:45 pm to 5:30 pm.

Under normal circumstances, if Shawano schools are closed or delayed due to weather, the pantry will be closed as well.  We ask patrons to register by 10:30 am on the mornings we are open, and by 5:30 on Wednesday evenings.

If you work mornings, and are unable to come in during normal pantry hours please call as arrangements  can be made to have a friend or neighbor pick up groceries for you.

As we distribute federal commodities, we use federal income guidelines.
