As the government shutdown continues, more San Antonians are finding themselves in need of food, basic essentials, and support. Many local nonprofits are struggling to keep up and as a small organization, CAM is doing everything we can to meet this growing need. We remain committed to serving everyone who comes to us in crisis, but our shelves and resources are being stretched thin. We’re asking our community – churches, businesses, and individuals – to come together to help us continue being a safety net for those who need it most. Together, we can make sure no family is left hungry or without hope during this challenging time.
If you’d like to help us help those in need, please consider collecting the following food items and dropping them off to CAM’s downtown campus: 110 McCullough Ave., Mon-Thurs 8am – 3:30pm or Fri 8am – 11:30am. Or, please consider making a monetary donation here.
-
Jars/cans of tomato sauce
-
Canned soups

Large boxes of cereal
