COMMUNITY HANDS FOOD PANTRY GUIDELINES
The CommUnity Hands Food Pantry can only provide food to a family once every two months.
Only one applicant per household address may receive food.
An application must be filled out EACH TIME there is a request for assistance.
Applicants must have two forms of ID EACH TIME there is a request for assistance. (1) a current driver’s license or picture ID with applicant’s name on it; (2) a current utility bill, statement or official document with the applicant’s name and address to verify Livingston Parish residency. **If proper identification is not available, “extras” will be given when available until applicant can return with proper documents.
The CommUnity Hands Food Pantry is supported by the First United Methodist Church of Denham Springs, St. Francis Episcopal Church, ExxonMobil (current and former ExxonMobil employees volunteer hours), and many community locations and organizations through food donations.
The Food Pantry volunteers and/or its contributors will not be responsible for any liability, losses, claims, causes of actions, or suits of law in relation to its storage and/or use of the food donated.
The CommUnity Hands Food Pantry provides a way to share the abundance that God has showered on us with those in need in our community. Emergency food is shared with love and respect to those who come for assistance. Our desire is for those in need to receive not only food for their physical hunger, but generous portions of love, kindness and grace to feed their spiritual and emotional hungers. We believe the words of Jesus that this is one way we can respond directly to God’s love for us.
