Serving together
Partner Organizations & Giving Opportunities
The needs in our Albuquerque community are many! We attempt to do as much as we can each month. These are the organizations with whom we are currently partnering and collecting donations for.
Mobile Food Pantry
St. John's UMC, in partnership with Roadrunner Food Bank, offers a monthly food distribution for 50 needy families on the 3rd Saturday of every month at 9:30 a.m. in the Family Life Center (FLC); first come, first served. Volunteers spend about two hours assisting with distribution.
Silver Horizons
Silver Horizons assists low-income seniors (50 years and older), many of whom are raising grandchildren and existing on as low as $700 per month, meet their basic needs and maintain a quality standard of living. Silver Horizons does not receive funding from the State of New Mexico, the County of Bernalillo, or from the City of Albuquerque. Silver Horizons exists because of donations from individuals, local businesses, and private foundations. They do receive some FEMA funds from the Federal Government. ​

We will continually collect single-serve items throughout the school year but for the month of October, we're collecting (all single-serve sizes): macaroni and cheese cups, shelf-stable chocolate milk, packets of cheese-and-crackers, packets of goldfish crackers, microwavable ravioli and veggie cups such as corn, carrots and green beans. For a complete list of the pop-top, single-serve items we put in the weekend meal bags, click here (attach the list that is currently there). Please drop off your donations at the Hospitality Center.
