As you may have already heard, no SNAP benefits will be distributed in Missouri for November. We know this is going to cause hardship for many of our neighbors, and we want to be sure that everyone has ready access to information about food pantries and distribution events. Here are the two websites we most use to help people find food resources.

https://stlfoodbank.org/ * includes a monthly calendar of food distribution events for the entire metro area

https://www.communitycouncilstc.org/resources/food-resource-guide * includes Lincoln and Warren Counties

The Food Resource Guide is a project of the Hunger Task Force, a coalition of food pantries in St. Charles, Lincoln, and Warren Counties.

Important Marcy Meals Update

October was originally planned to be our final Marcy Meals distribution for 2025. However, with the ongoing government shutdown and the temporary halt of SNAP benefits, we know many families are facing unexpected challenges putting food on the table.

Thanks to an incredibly generous donor, we are able to offer one additional Marcy Meals distribution to help bridge the gap.

Pickup Date: Sunday, November 9th
Time: 11:30 AM – 12:00 PM
Location: 1245 Jungermann Rd., St. Peters, MO 63376 (rear entrance)

This special distribution will be available to families who normally receive SNAP benefits between November 1–15.
👉 Proof of eligibility will be required at pickup.

Sign-Up Opens: 8:00 AM on Saturday, November 1st on social media and our website.
Spots are limited and will go quickly!

We are deeply grateful for the support that makes this possible—and to our volunteers and donors who continue to step up for local families in need.

St. Charles County, we have a huge problem: Did you know that there were 53 days last year with temperatures below 32 degrees Fahrenheit? Temperatures are already beginning to drop as of this week, which could be devastating for the roughly 460 families who experience homelessness in our community on any given day.
