Corporate sponsors

Without our corporate sponsors we would not be able to provide the consistent meals that our guests love. These companies support us and their community by providing ingredients at no cost, supplying technical support and advice, giving grants, and/or discounting and specially preparing our ingredients. They do this without asking for any type of recognition and we know we could never thank them enough!

Collaborating Congregations and Groups

We want all groups to know that their congregants or members will feel completely at home regardless of their religious affiliation or beliefs.  It is heartwarming to have other congregations recognize our vision and put aside any differences in order to help feed our neighbors. For these reasons, we send all our love to these groups who have pledged monetary, food, and volunteer help.

Individual Sponsors

There is no way for us to possibly recognize everyone who has generously given to The Pantry. We can not express how much it means to us to have people donate their hard-earned money, whether it is $1 or $1,000,000. We are especially thankful for those individuals and families who have made monthly pledges. We are also incredibly grateful for those who have donated their time during prep days, distribution days, dropping off food donations, and doing a myriad of other tasks without which we would not be able to function.
Our Mission
The mission of The Pantry JC is to reduce food insecurity and empower residents of Mid-Missouri with confidence in food preparation.
We will achieve this by providing our guests with ingredients for complete meals.  We also help to attain this, by providing
recommendations for inexpensive meal ingredients and meals that can teach cooking skills. 
It is vital to our organization all guests feel welcome; therefore we have no identification, income, or geographic requirements.
