Emergency Aid

If you are experiencing a time of economic hardship and are finding it hard to meet your familys immediate needs, we can help.

Ecumenical Ministries can offer assistance with food through our pantries, which are regularly stocked with non-perishable food items. When available, EMI's Gleaning program adds fresh baked items, fruits and produce.

We also offer assistance with utilities, rent, medical services, transportation, prescription needs and other necessities.

Meals on Wheels

If you are homebound and unable to cook for yourself, we can offer nutritious, affordable meals delivered to your home Monday through Friday. Feel free to only sign up to receive meals on select days of the week or for all five days.

Home Repair

We know that owning a home can be expensive and there may be times when you require assistance with basic home repairs or long-term natural disaster recovery. Repairs can include roofing, flooring, plumbing, wheelchair ramp construction and other improvements that are necessary to keeping the home livable. Through grant funding and volunteer labor, we can help provide necessary repairs to homeowners that qualify for assistance.
