North Fork Parish 2025 Summary

The North Fork Parish Outreach partners with you to fulfill Christ’s mandate to love our neighbors as ourselves, by transforming your donations into real solutions for those in crisis, into feeding the hungry, into easing the daily struggles of those whose lives are burdened by different hardships. In 2025, with your support combined with that of other caring individuals and groups, we:

· Distributed 4,126 full bags of groceries from our Pantry to 3,625 children, adults, and seniors in 1008 households

· Gave 233 individuals in 54 families Thanksgiving baskets, and delivered 6 holiday meals to the homeless

· Supplied 78 students with all the necessities needed to start school successfully

· Financially assisted 28 people with rent, utilities, and fuel

· Helped 9 people find employment

· Provided 283 new jackets, hats, gloves, socks, or pjs, to children in need

These are just some of the ways that the 5,435 people whom we served in Christ’s Name last year found relief and compassion through our ministry. On behalf of those who appreciate as well as rely on your generosity, thank you and may you be greatly blessed for your compassion.
