Who We Are

The Neighborhood Food Pantry Ministry was organized under the auspices of In One ACCORD in 1992 and the five pantries opened their doors under this designation on November 2, 1992. In 1999, the pantries became independent under the fiduciary umbrella of the Battle Creek Community Foundation. Our 6th pantry, Love Thy Neighbor Ministries, opened in May 2014.

This ministry is non-denominational and is supported through both monetary and food donations from churches, individuals service organizations, local businesses and grants through the Food Bank of South Central Michigan. Pantries are operated by volunteers and there are no paid positions.
