Fighting Hidden Hunger in an Affluent Community
Aug 3, 2026 | Stories of Ministry
This story is about more than fundraising—it’s about a congregation recognizing that hunger doesn’t always look the way people expect.
Mt Hermon, Concord, has a Little Pantry on our property on Hwy 601. Once a month or so the youth go shopping to refill it. It’s special to see our youth take such an interest in this project. We’ve had it used by many in our community who just need a meal or two. Of course others from the community refill it as well, but I just wanted to say, “Our youth are amazing!”
