CAC helps families keep food on the table while saving $800 a month

CAC works to eradicate food insecurity for local families in need by providing access for individuals and families to shop weekly at any of the three CAC Mini-Markets in the Perimeter area. By operating similarly to a grocery store, these food pantries encourage households to select groceries based on their individual needs and preferences, helping families maintain access to nutritious foods as they resolve a personal financial crisis.

Offerings in the CAC Mini-Markets include both shelf stable and fresh foods like produce, bread, meat, dairy products, and prepared foods. Every week there are different, high-quality items for clients to select. There is no cost to CAC clients to shop at CAC Mini-Markets, but instead are limited to a certain amount per week based on the size of their family unit.
