Helping the Hungry in Spring.

There is nothing worse than seeing or knowing of hungry children. If you will send me her address via private, I'll see if I can't get a gift card to a grocery store. It breaks my heart!

Mission Statement
The mission of Northwest Assistance Ministries (NAM) is to strive to meet basic human needs through Neighbors Helping Neighbors.

Description
Northwest Assistance Ministries (NAM) is a grassroots, non-profit, community-based, multi-program social service established in 1983. NAM consists of an interfaith coalition of covenant congregations, affiliate organizations, and business neighbors. Guided by a small staff, more than 2,000 volunteers work together to provide a variety of basic services to our neighbors in need in NorthwestHarrisCounty and throughout the greater Houston area. More than 50% of those helped by this effort are children. NAM is proud that approximately $.89 of every $1.00 raised goes directly into community services.

Carol,

There are plenty of churches in the area who give out monthly food help. I go to Price of Peacre at 249 and Perry Road. She can get assistance there. There is also NAM (Northwest Assistance Ministries). If she wants to earn some $$, she can call me at ###-###-#### to get her own business started. Hope this helps.

You can search for nearest location. They have packaged month's worth of groceries/food to be picked up all for about (I believe) $25-30. Look on the above website to see what kind of food is available each month because it varies.

I don't know how far away y'all are but there is a place called SAM's that Smith Elementary gives coats and jackets and food to during the school year. I am not sure if they have more then one location or not. I think they are at Aldine West-field and Trailing Vine.

Hi, Champion Life Centre(a large church) on 2920 close to 45 has a food pantry. also NAM, Northwest Assistance Ministries can help probably with food but also with food stamps. There is also a Between Jobs Ministry that is at NW Bible Church. Hope this helps.

You can refer your neighbor to NAM (Northwest Assitance Ministry) in Spring off 1960 and Kuykendahl. They have a food pantry, and from what you say about her situation sounds like she will qualify. www.namonline.org

Northwest Assistance Ministries has all kinds of help for her including a food pantry. Goodwill is also a good resource. The catholic church has many charitible programs. But send her to NAM on Kuykendahl just south of FM1960 West.

Try www.namonline.org - Northwest assistance ministries on Kuykendahl is probably the closest and they have lots of services. Good luck and thanks for helping your neighbors.

you may try Northwest Assistance Ministries. or Cypress Assistance Ministries

Interfaith in The Woodlands has a food pantry. She can also contact Fellowship of the Woodlands church for help.

St Anthony of Padua in the woodlands has a food panty so does interfaith up here. I know interfaith is also having a school supply assistance soon that she can use for the kids.
