Neighborhood House Food Shelf

The goal of the Neighborhood House Food Shelf is to provide food to those seeking assistance, and to connect them with critical community resources that help them move “from survive to thrive."

• Neighborhood House has the largest single-site food shelf in Ramsey County, distributing over 3,000 pounds of food daily to over 8,000 households annually; 50% of those served are children. 
• Of all food shelf participants, 90% live on incomes below the national poverty guideline, which includes a family of four earning $22,050 or less annually, according to the Department of Health and Human Services. 
• The Neighborhood House Food Shelf was named a Blue Ribbon Food Shelf by Hunger Solutions Minnesota, recognizing exceptional quality and service.

Hope Growing

The House of Hope Community Garden is a mission and outreach activity of the House of Hope Presbyterian Church in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The Garden began last growing season (2011), and in its first year produced almost 1000 pounds of fresh produce, which was contributed to the Neighborhood House Food Shelf.
