What We Do

Each donation helps improve the lives of over 300 families each week.

Anyone can find themselves in a situation that requires the help of others.  There are many reasons for needing assistance, including, but not limited to, disability, loss of job, being a single parent, being a senior on a fixed income, or the loss of home. Loaves & Fishes provides supplemental food to over 300 qualified low-income families and individuals each week. We provide monthly cleaning supplies, toiletries, household items, baby essentials, and prescription financial assistance. In addition to helping families with a supplemental bag of food, the organization also serves a daily bagged lunch to approximately 38 homeless people four times a week.

Each year traditional holiday food bags are distributed for Thanksgiving and Christmas. In addition, clients receive a Publix gift card at Thanksgiving and a Dollar Tree gift card at Christmas. Christmas is also celebrated with Christmas tins filled with miniature chocolates for each client and new toys for parents and grandparents to give to their children/grandchildren. This is a monumental event that brings smiles to many families.

Our Mission Statement:

In the name of Jesus Christ,​ the Compassionate Savior, we seek to minister to the expressed physical & spiritual needs of persons living in Apopka and the surrounding communities.
