CommUnity Meals
A local collaborative effort has been put together to provide a free weekly meal for anyone who is hungry. Meals are pick-up only, each Monday at the Riverview Church in Pine River or each Thursday at the Backus Pine Mountaineer Senior Center. Serving time is 4:00pm. until gone.

Food Shelf Current Needs
The Pine River Area Food Shelf is currently looking for these listed items. They are items we cannot purchase as easily with donated dollars, and we mainly rely on donors to keep these items in stock for our community members. If you can donate any of these items, they may be dropped off at the Family Center any time we are open, or any time the Food Shelf is open. Thank you in advance!

Volunteers Needed
The Pine River Area Food Shelf is looking for able-bodied volunteers to help with food distribution twice weekly. Volunteers alternate so no one works every food shelf day. If you or someone you know is interested, please give us a call!

Personal Hygiene Drive 2023
The PR-B Family Center is accepting donations for the 2023 Back-to-School Personal Hygiene Drive. The last day to drop off items is August 31st. Donated items will be distributed to PR-B School students in need throughout the school year.
Thank you to all who have already donated, and to all those who will be bringing donations in before the end of the month. You are appreciated!
