East Fort Bend Human Needs Ministry

Through financial contributions and “people power,” help supply food, clothing, and financial assistance to families and individuals in crisis.  Join our Food Pantry and Resale Shop groups.

Ministry Leader: Ginny Schabacker

The Resale shop is in need of quality furniture for resale, free from rips, breaks, tears, or stains (or with limited damage, which we are happy to review via email if necessary). They offer porch and garage pick-up services, and for the safety of customers and drivers, masks and social distancing are required during item pick-ups. We can accept all items except for mattresses. Additionally, you can drop off items yourself between 10 am and 4 pm, Tuesday through Saturday, at the shop located at 425 Stafford Run. If you have any questions, please contact Natasha Bradley at natasha@humanneeds.org.

East Fort Bend Human Needs Ministry’s mission is to address the basic human needs of families facing food insecurity and/or temporary financial crisis in East Fort Bend County.

Through financial contributions and “people power,” help supply food, clothing, and financial assistance to families and individuals in crisis.  Join our Food Pantry and Resale Shop groups.
