MEAC Marketplace
Every Tuesday, MEAC welcomes our neighbors to choose from an array of groceries provided by the MEAC Marketplace.
WHAT IS THE MEAC MARKETPLACE?
The MEAC Marketplace is a choice food pantry in which our neighbors shop for what their families need instead of being given a pre-packaged box or bag of groceries. We have set up the MEAC Marketplace like a grocery store where our neighbors are treated with respect and afforded the dignity of choice.
After the COVID-19 pandemic in May of 2022, we welcomed our neighbors back into the building to choose their items and have their orders packed, similar to a commonly used grocery store pickup service. Neighbors will enter through the Eastminster Church and select grocery items from a set list and then wait while one of our amazing volunteers gather the order.
SHOPPING THE MARKETPLACE
Neighbors in our service area (45208, 45209, 45226, and 45227 zip codes) can shop once a month for fresh, frozen, and packaged foods, as well as personal care products.
To shop, please bring:
-
A photo ID
-
An official document that includes your address from within the last 30 days
Please enter through the glass doors at the front of the Eastminster Church building and check in inside of McCord Hall.
