Need Assistance?
We're here to help.Our Food Pantry in LaFayette, Georgia helps provide assistance for residents of Walker County, Fort Oglethorpe, and Trion. Beyond food, we help families in need with prayer.
Households may receive food assistance only once per calendar month.
Check your calendars before driving in to make sure you have not already received food assistance from us in the same month.
Assistance is given on a first come, first serve basis.
We caution clients not to wait until the last minute before closing to come through – we will stop registration when enough have checked in to reach closing time.
Please make sure you are prepared to receive food in your car.
We want to give as much food as God has provided, but sometimes we are limited by space. If you have a pet, please make sure they are restrained.
