Mission for Area People
Mission for Area People (MAP), is a faith-based nonprofit organization serving all of Muskegon County with a mission to care for our community through compassion and practical support. One of our core programs is the Healthy Choice Food Pantry, which is open by appointment on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
The Healthy Choice Pantry provides families in need with a variety of groceries, with portions tailored to family size. Our offerings include all essential food groups—dairy, fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, proteins (including fresh meats like poultry and pork), bread, eggs, and other weekly grocery staples. In collaboration with MAP’s Free Medical Clinic and Medical Fund, we also offer specialized food options for individuals with dietary restrictions, such as diabetic-friendly and gluten-free diets.

Saturday Breakfast and Garden at First Congregational Church
First Congregational Church (FCC) shares a nutritious and free breakfast with about 150 of its neighbors on the LAST SATURDAY of every month. Volunteers from other churches and service organizations assist in producing the meal, sharing the meal, socializing with each other and the guests, and making referrals to other social services that aid income-constrained individuals and families. During the growing season, the Saturday Breakfast Garden engages neighbors in producing a healthy harvest for their own consumption as well as other programs that reduce food insecurity.

Fruitport Christian Reformed Church
The Fruitport Area Churches blend our gifts and resources to host a community food pantry at Fruitport Christian Reformed Church. Combining several smaller pantries during Covid, the Neighbor-to-Neighbor Pantry serves neighbors in Muskegon & Ottawa County. We are networked with Love Inc Muskegon & Love in Action Grand Haven. In 2023, nearly 450 families in need received assistance. Neighbors select from a weekly menu of non-perishables, dairy, meat, frozen, personal care, and basic household items & paper products. We are grateful for neighbors, local businesses, and Crop Walk for helping us keep our shelves filled. The hosting system we have provides for follow-up calls to offer prayer, deepen connections for the lonely, and provide referrals to other ministries.
