Feed My Sheep

This program encourages community groups, business groups, neighborhood associations and churches to support the Food Pantry by providing the tools for organizing their own food drives to benefit the Franciscan Center. The organization also provides specialized shopping bags with the Feed My Sheep logo. When donations are made the filled bags are collected and distributed by the Franciscan Center.
