Mission Statement

At The Branch, we know that people flourish in community, but our society is fractured by social, financial, religious, political, and ethnic division. These differences can make finding a real community difficult. Our goal is to develop meaningful connections with the members of the community at The Branch: students, teachers, clients, volunteers, and staff. Whether we are learning English as a foreign language, cooking meals to feed volunteers, or stocking the pantry shelves, all are treated with dignity and respect. We are working together to form the bonds of friendship, so that everyone at The Branch has a voice and a place of acceptance and welcome. By creating such a community, we hope to give people what they need to thrive spiritually, emotionally, and materially.

Description

The Pantry is a place where families come to receive more than food. The boxes and bags of food that are loaded into vehicles Monday - Saturday represent relief and hope. Single mothers, seniors, and others on fixed incomes can breathe a little easier knowing that there is food in the kitchen. Those who are transitioning to a new job or a new country can look forward to a time when they will no longer need this bridge of support, helping them move ahead to a new life.
