L.I.F.E Pantry

LIFE is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization that started in 1987.  It is a cooperative ministry supported by more than 40 churches throughout Lawrence County.  LIFE provides emergency food assistance every 30 days and emergency rent or mortgage/utility assistance. In addition, L.I.F.E. sponsors “Life Blessings” for which each student is given a bag of nutritional food on Fridays to take home to help with food insecurity.

The pantry delivers more than 12,000 items each month to families in need.

For those unable to make it out to this year’s event and still want to help with LIFE please drop items off at the Food Pantry or make a donation at 1204 I Street in Bedford.
