Donations at a Critical Level

The Storehouse is in the middle of a crisis as donations are down by 62% versus the same time last year.  It is essential that The Storehouse increase its donor base in order to meet the need of the individuals and families that we serve.  It is important that donations not fall at this level again and we certainly need to be proactive in our attempts to keep the donations up to the minimum level to cover our most basic needs.

There is a problem with the economy.  It has not gotten much better and the end is not really in sight.  The Storehouse provides the community with a great deal of nutritional support, hygiene products and clothes for those who are in great need.  We provide the homeless food, clothing and a place that is warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

How can we continue to serve these individuals and families without the proper amount of money to by the food and hygiene products that they desperately need? We can't.  We will have to serve fewer people.  That means, more people will go hungry.

Take time to look at your budget and see if you can serve The Storehouse with a donation on a regular basis. See if you can help us find other donors if you can't donate yourself.  There are many ways that you can help and we need all the help that we can get.

Reaching people right here and right now,

Over Ten Years of Providing Service to Henderson County

Can a caring heart make a difference in the lives of hungry people?  It certainly can be if your caring heart is followed up with a motivation to make a difference.  Ten years ago, Lynn Staggs felt a calling to do something about the elderly people in Hendersonville going hungry each month. 

So many individuals and families have been assisted during trying times because of the heart of Lynn and her many volunteers and donors.  The Storehouse is located in downtown Hendersonville on 7th avenue.  This Christ centered food and hygiene pantry allows the clients the ability to see Christ in action. 

This blog will be sharing about what goes on at the Storehouse.  It will give everyone a glimpse of what can happen in an individual's life one can of food at a time.

Of course, we would love to have you help us out and receive a huge blessing in return.  Here is a list of how you can help:
