Welcome to the M.O.R.E. Center

Our aim is to provide support for individuals needing food, clothing and emergency financial assistance. As you visit this site, we hope you gain an insight into what we do and will get the information you are seeking.

It is always a delight to see the expectant eyes of children waiting to receive their brand new backpacks each year. Thanks to the Salvation Army, about 90 fully loaded backpacks were distributed in August. Small things like this, help to get children off to a good start and they are able to fit in with everyone else.

I know it is hard to believe, but during the unusually hot days in September, we were signing up children for new coats, Angel Tree clothing, and Toys For Tots. We have ordered the Thanksgiving and Christmas food boxes and we have set the dates for distribution of holiday food, in partnership with the HOSA students at MCHS and the Zion Lutheran Church Love Project. In September, we hosted a job staffing agency in the hopes of helping those looking for jobs. As you can see, we stay busy at the M.O.R.E. Center. Thanks to the many dedicated volunteers and great support from the community, we continue to get the job done. I should also mention that we are gladly accepting gently used winter clothing, coats and gloves. I also want to request that donations only be dropped off when our staff is present and please do not bring furniture or large appliances, including TV’s. We simply do not have the storage room.
