One in Five Children are facing hunger in CT~ summer is especially difficult with the loss of access to school meals. Our pledge is to end the FEAR of HUNGER. There are always extenuating circumstances that bring folks to the point of utilizing the services of a food pantry. That is why we work so diligently to have~ on site~ medical care, dental care, SNAP Certification, mental/behavioral health counseling, internships, clothing, laundry/shower facilities, etc. Folks REQUIRE MORE THAN FOOD~ but we can start there!!
Please help us help others this summer. You investment of time, talents, resources will directly impact the life of a child and their family!
Master’s Manna is here to SERVE those that require basic human needs such as food and clothing. Our DESIRE is to SERVE. Lately there has been a LOT of miscommunication regarding use of food pantries in other towns PLUS Master’s Manna.
It is VERY IMPORTANT for individuals that have resources available to them to use them AS WELL AS Master’s Manna. For those folks who live in Meriden and Middletown~ you have other food pantries at your availability. Use all of them!!
For Meriden residents, we are aware that most food pantries allow you to access once a month. Here is a tip… there are 4 weeks in a month. Use Salvation Army one week, New Opportunities another week, Grace Place is good for a third week, the Mobile Food Pantry is always available the 4th Thursday of the month, New Gethsemane can be accessed twice a month, Iglesia Cristiana Palabra De Vida weekly! NO ONE in Meriden should be without food. USE your food pantries~ a different one each week, PLUS come here twice a month.
These are faces of “our” children that NO longer FEAR HUNGER! YOU have helped make this a reality through your gifts and prayers. We are forever grateful. THANK YOU!
YOUR INVESTMENT will help change a community!

*”Food Insecurity” refers to the USDA’s measure of lack of access, at times, to enough good for an active, healthy life for all household members and limited or uncertain availability if nutritionally adequate foods.
Food insecure households are not necessarily food insecure all the time, Food insecurity may reflect a household’s need to make trade-offs between important basic needs, such as housing or medical bills, and purchasing nutritionally adequate foods.
The FEAR of HUNGER ENDS here!!!!
