Services
Six Rivers Food Pantry welcomes any household in need without income or residency restrictions. On average, the pantry supports over 70 households each month. Over half of the individuals served are children or seniors. Most of the adult clients are employed, but do not make enough to cover essentials.
Clients primarily come from the Southwest corner of Grant County bounded by the Mississippi River to the west, Route 18 to the North, and Route 61 to the east. This corresponds to four school district areas for River Ridge, Cassville, Potosi, and Lancaster.
