Pathways is partnering with "SO WHAT ELSE?" to distribute food boxes to those in need in our community.

Every Thursday, from 10a-12Noon, you will see volunteers eager to help load FREE boxes of food into the cars of people who are struggling to feed their families.

Pathways is a distribution site for this extensive effort through "So What Else?" Inc to stamp out hunger in our community.

If you are in need or know someone who could use a helping hand, come to Pathways every Thursday - DRIVE THROUGH ONLY.

Manna Food distribution occurs in the upper parking lot, by the cafeteria on the side of the building.

To receive food, you will speak with a referral representative who will ask a few questions to confirm eligibility:

• Are you a Montgomery County resident?
• Does your household income fall below the self-sufficiency threshold?
• Which day and location is most convenient for your food pickup?

To schedule a food pickup, please call Manna’s main office at (301) 424-1130. Calls are accepted Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. You must call by 12:00 PM the day before your desired pickup date to allow time for your order to be prepared.

When picking up food, please bring a photo ID with your current Montgomery County address or a document proving county residency.

• Community members who are interested in receiving food should call 301-793-3321 and leave a voicemail including name, phone number, address, and number of people in the household. A church staff will call back to schedule an appointment.
