The Grand Prairie Food & Clothing Assistance Co-op is composed of 19 churches and four service organizations.
The Mission of the Grand Prairie Co-op is to provide emergency food, clothing and crisis assistance to needy citizens of Grand Prairie and to others who may meet specific eligibility requirements. Clients must be residents of Grand Prairie and meet the TexCap income limits for households. Photo ID and proof of residency required for applicant and birth certificates for children.
 
Each family is eligible for food three times per year and monetary assistance once a year. The Co-op shares client assistance with other agencies in the city and county.
    Food Items We Always Need are: Canned Meats and Canned Chili, Soups, Peanut Butter, Jelly, Cereal and donations of money to purchase food.
    Our clothing pantry receives "gently" used clothing for use by clients. We need seasonal clothing that is clean and in good condition. Always needed are childrens clothing, blue jeans and work clothes.  Shoes, socks, and underwear are also in demand (no used underwear or panties, please). Donations of bed linens and towels accepted
    The Co-op needs contributions to its Crisis Fund to help people in desperate circumstances. This fund assists with utilities and rent for those facing eviction, as well as gasoline for clients with job interviews. The fund also covers partial payments on prescription drugs.
