Catholic Charities opens food pantry in Cassville

CASSVILLE — Catholic Charities-Madison announces the opening of Six Rivers Food Pantry on Wednesday, April 17, located at 222 W. Amelia St. in Cassville, serving both Cassville and the surrounding area.

Food will be available for those in need on Wednesdays from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. and on Saturdays from 8 to 9:30 a.m. Guests will complete a brief application and self-determine their eligibility. All are welcome.

The pantry is needed in the community due to several businesses that have closed leading to unemployment and the lack of other pantries in the Cassville area. “We are thrilled to collaborate with the Cassville community on this project. Helping people in need in rural communities is a fit with our mission,” said Jackson Fonder, president and CEO of Catholic Charities.
