Feeding America In Washington County | By Ron Naab

Jackson, WI – Still Waters Church, 3617 Scenic Road, has been given a wonderful opportunity to partner with Feeding America to help feed Washington County.

Before COVID-19 10,000 pounds of food was being distributed in Washington County weekly.  This is no longer happening.  Feeding America–Eastern Wisconsin is the leading hunger-relief organization in the state, operating food banks in Milwaukee and the Fox Valley. 

When staff at Still Waters Church heard so much food was no longer being distributed, it contacted Feeding America.

Still Waters expressed a desire to be a part of getting this much needed food to Washington County residents

Feeding America management was excited to have Still Waters reach out to them.  This lead to creating a mobile pantry on a trial basis, a mobile pantry is different from a traditional food pantry.  Feeding America will deliver pallets of perishables church members will package up these items and then we do a drive through and place packages in their vehicle. The trial date is set for Wednesday, May 20 from 9 a.m. – 11 a.m.  

Bridget Case, Associate Pastor at Still Waters said, “This is a wonderful opportunity for Still Waters Church to be connected with our community and build relationships with those in our community who need to know we are here for them.
