BUDA — Buda United Methodist Church is working on rebuilding a component of its food pantry after suffering damage in early May.
The food pantry at Buda UMC is a certified site of the Community Partner Program through Texas Department of Health and Human Services, part of a statewide network of community-based organizations seeking to make it easier and more efficient for members of the community to find out more about and apply for state-wide benefits.
The pantry dates back 20-30 years, starting with various donations within the community and congregation and it’s only grown from there to now provide fresh produce, frozen meat packets, canned goods and other grocery items to approximately 75-80 households per week, explained Michael Goodroe, head of the Missions Committee.
