Our Story: New Beginnings Outreach Ministry:
This year 2014, marks our 10th anniversary in the Point Cedar Arkansas area. with one of the areas we are reaching out to our community being the Hope Outreach FoodBank. We started in 2006 helping 15 families through the Angel Food Ministry then realized we could help more by buying through our local stores. 2009 we received a box truck not knowing we h
ad a fully operating Food bank in our future. 2012 we built the 16x30 480sq ft.building we are now using to help over 200 families in 5 counties within 11 mile radious of the building. Simply put we have no more room. Currently we can only have 2-3 members in the building at a time choosing their food which leaves everyone else waiting outside in the weather! We store enough food for 1 distribution day at a time, causing us to pass up many opportunities to stock pile for not only our distribution days but for disaster relief as well. The new building will be located in the heart of Point Cedar on a major road. It will be 40x100 4,000 sq. space allowing ALL of our clients to wait inside for their turn. This will allow us to stock pile non perishables for future donation days as well as for Disaster Relief. We will have an industrial kitchen allowing us to cook and serve food for the community, also giving us a place for County Co-op to hold cooking, canning, preperation classes for the community. The building project itself will bring much needed jobs for those in the community. Your donation of ANY size $1.00 or more can help us make our building a reality.
