Our Parish supports the following local ministries with regular donations:
St. Joseph Food Program
The St. Joseph Food Program is a non-profit, non-sectarian organization that has operated since 1982. Weekly they distribute 30 tons of fresh food and non-perishable items to hundreds of men, women and children – the elderly, working poor and temporarily unemployed. They are funded by cash and food donations from individuals, churches, businesses and foundations.
As a parish we donate nonperishable food items monthly to St. Joseph Food Program in Menasha, WI. To do that we encourage our parishioners to bring nonperishable items to our Church for us to donate to the St. Joseph Food Program or to take them directly to St. Joe’s:
