The Northern Rhode Food Pantry of Cumberland, a non-profit member agency of the RI Community Food Bank serves non-perishable food items to over 175+ needy families per month.  Particularly since the pandemic began, this service is crucial to the young, elderly, and working poor from Cumberland, Lincoln, Woonsocket and nearby communities. You are invited to take part in Emmanuel’s support of this ministry by participating in one of our three food drives, or attending the fall Ecumenical Choral Concert (as soon as we are able to offer it again) and donating cash on the 4th weekend of the month, sending a check (make sure that NRFP is in the memo line), or using Venmo @EmmanuelEpiscopal-Church. You can also drop off some of the pantry’s most needed items: Cereal, Oatmeal, Pancake Mix, Peanut Butter, Jelly, Pasta/and Sauces,  Mac & Cheese, Hearty Soups, and Tuna.

Should you know of anyone requiring food assistance, please tell them about NRIFP. http://www.nrifoodpantry.org/
