On Saturday, April 18, 2020, Greater New Birth Church, 8237 W. Silver Spring Drive, hosted a Drive-Thru Food Pantry for people in need during the “Safer At Home” order, which is now in effect until May 24.

There are many families in need in the community and the normal agencies are overrun during the pandemic.

Greater New Birth decided to step-up and help out using donations from several different sources.

Cars lined up starting at 7 a.m. Volunteers put together bags of food and took them to the waiting cars. They stayed until all the food was gone.
