Many of our residents support Faith In Action - Chelsea/Dexter and know what an important service this is to the local communities. Thank you FIA ❤️

This week, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) announced that SNAP benefits will not be distributed in November.

At FIA, we know how deeply this impacts our neighbors. We’re here to support anyone in our community who needs access to food and essential resources during this challenging time.

In Michigan, 13% of households rely on SNAP benefits to put healthy meals on the table. When those benefits are delayed, even more families turn to FIA to make ends meet.

You can make a difference. Help us keep our pantry shelves full by donating food or organizing a food drive with your workplace, church, or neighborhood.

To coordinate, contact Gail Cogsil, Mission Support Program Manager, at gcogsil@faithinaction1.org.

Your support helps ensure families in Chelsea, Dexter, Grass Lake, and Scio Farms have access to the food and care they deserve.

Retired United Methodist clergy and elementary school/Reading Recovery teacher, Brent and Marlene McCumons, residents of Chelsea Retirement Community’s Prairie Cottages, have made a lifetime of giving of themselves to make life better for others. It’s not surprising, then, that they continue to give in retirement to serve older adults. Read more on this story at
