Senior Food Boxes

The Wooster Hope Center partners with the government to offer senior citizens boxes of food to help supplement their groceries.

Volunteers & Donors Make it Possible

At the Wooster Hope Center, we cannot do what we do without the help of volunteers and donors. We are an all-volunteer organization, including the executive director and pantry manager. We can always use volunteers.

And, the generous support of the community, our corporate partners, and the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank make supplying the food possible
