Community Cares Food Program Extended Through June

The Community Cares Food Program, a partnership between United Way of Western Nebraska serving Box Butte County, Northwest Community Action Partnership, CASH-WA and Food Bank of the Heartland has been extended through June 2021. This program is offered to those in need of food resources.

This drive-up distribution features pre-boxed fresh fruits and vegetables and milk. Occasionally protein products will be available.

The event will be held the first and third Friday of each month at 10:30 a.m. at St. John’s Lutheran Church 2090 Emerson Alliance. Vehicles should head South on Emerson from 25th Street and enter parking lot from the North entrance.

Patrons are asked to stay in their vehicles and the food will be placed in their vehicle by volunteers.  Each vehicle will receive one distribution.
