A “Big Leap” Forward

— And We’re Still Growing

Food insecurity and financial hardship continue to impact thousands of neighbors in our community — many who are working, raising families, or facing unexpected challenges.

At NETWorks Cooperative Ministry, we respond with the hospitality of Christ by meeting immediate needs for food and financial assistance while walking alongside our neighbors as they pursue long-term stability.

In December 2022, NETWorks moved into our expanded facility at 4296 Cowan Road. By the end of 2023, we successfully completed the Big Leap Expansion Campaign, raising $750,000 to make this vision possible.

Because of that investment, we have been able to:

• Expand our Client Choice Food Pantry, increasing access to healthy food

• Distribute record levels of food to meet growing need

• Launch the Navigator Program to support long-term stability

• Introduce Growings, our hydroponic farm, bringing fresh produce into the pantry

• Deepen community partnerships and volunteer engagement

The need has not slowed — and neither have we.

As we look ahead, NETWorks remains committed to thoughtful growth that strengthens both immediate support and long-term solutions.

There is more to come — and we invite you to be part of what’s next.

Whether you have supported NETWorks for years or are just learning about our work, your partnership helps ensure that every neighbor has access to the resources and support they need to move forward.
