Hope Faith Charity Ministries

Community Outreach Center

Basic necessities for our Utica neighbors — food, clothing, and care. No cost, no judgment, no appointment needed.

What We Provide

Everything at the Outreach Center is free to anyone who walks through the door. Bring a bag or a box if you have one — we'll help you carry it out if you don't.

Food Pantry

Boxes of shelf-stable groceries, fresh produce when available, and frozen proteins for households of any size.

Clothing Closet

Gently used clothing, coats, and shoes for children and adults — free, sorted by size, always open during center hours.

Hygiene & Baby Supplies

Soap, toothpaste, feminine products, diapers, wipes, and formula for families with little ones.

Hot Meals

A warm plate and a seat at the table every Saturday at noon in the fellowship hall. Everyone is welcome.

Utility & Rent Help

Emergency assistance for power, water, and rent, offered as funds allow through our benevolence fund.

Back-to-School & Christmas

Backpacks, supplies, and holiday gifts so no child in Utica goes without at the moments that matter most.

How to Receive Help

  1. 1

    Come by during center hours — walk-ins are always welcome.

  2. 2

    Share your household size with a volunteer so we can pack the right amount.

  3. 3

    Pick up your groceries, visit the clothing closet, and take what you need.

  4. 4

    Ask about utility help, prayer, or a referral — we'll sit down with you.

Give, Donate, or Volunteer

The shelves stay full because neighbors keep them full. We always need canned goods, rice and beans, diapers, hygiene items, and hands willing to sort and pack.

  • Drop off donations at the fellowship hall during center hours.
  • Volunteer shifts run Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday mornings.
  • Financial gifts to the benevolence fund go directly to rent and utility relief.
