We believe in building a resilient, supportive community where everyone has access to basic needs and a place to connect.
​
Our center offers essential services, including a community food pantry, a resilience hub for disaster preparedness, and a welcoming meeting space for local gatherings and initiatives. Together, we're strengthening Chico through compassion, resource-sharing, and community action.
Core Programs
Food Pantry
Our food pantry is open twice a month to help individuals and families extend their resources, providing essential items like shelf-stable foods, fresh produce, and frozen goods. We believe everyone should have access to nourishing food, and our pantry aims to meet this need in a welcoming and respectful environment.
Resilience Hub
Our Resilience Hub is designed to prepare and support the community through natural disasters and other emergencies. Partnering with organizations like the Red Cross, we offer resources and guidance to help residents of Butte County build resilience in the face of increasingly frequent fires, storms, and other challenges.
