Anchored Ministries is a local nonprofit organization that provides programs for community members in need in the areas of clothing, food, and nutrition. One of the programs they run is a bi-weekly Meal Box Program, which takes providing food to those in need an extra step. This is a bi-weekly summer program that provides nutritious meals to families in need while encouraging the skill of cooking. Anchored Ministries collects donations of food items, and puts together all of the ingredients for healthy, complete meals complete with detailed recipes. These Meal Boxes are then distributed to local families, empowering them to be able to cook their own nutritious meals.
This is all made possible by the generous donations of food items to make the program a success. MCC will be hosting a Bags by the Bumper donation collection this Sunday, June 27th to collect donations of the food items needed for this program. To help, please place non-perishable donation items in bags and place them behind the bumper of your vehicle in the parking lot at MCC’s Elverson campus during the 1st or 2nd morning service on Sunday. Food items needed for this collection include:
- Cereal
- Pasta
- Pasta Sauce
- Canned Chicken
- Flour Tortillas
- Jars of Salsa
- Cans of Beans
- Buffalo Sauce
- Ranch Seasoning
- Taco Seasoning
- Pizza Sauce
- Apple Sauce
- Taco Shells
- Cans of Chick Peas
- Sliced Black Olives

Gift cards to purchase the items needed are also welcome & appreciated. Each week we also need items such as fresh fruit, vegetables, bread, cheese, etc. If you are interested in helping supply these items, please email contact@anchoredministries.org to arrange a time (please do not put non-perishable donation items in your Bags by the Bumper).
