Nourshing Our Community
Every fall, NCCS families collect canned goods for the Carroll County Food Bank in an effort to help nourish our community.
Carroll County Food Sunday
“For the sake of human decency, feeding the poor and the hungry people of Carroll County must be a concern for all of us who are not hungry,” wrote Dominic Jollie after launching Carroll County Food Sunday (CCFS) in 1982. CCFS distributes a weekly, nutritionally balanced grocery package that is predicated on household size and is meant to last 3-4 days. It includes meat, eggs, fruits, vegetables, breads and milk. Over 400 families a week are served at our Westminster, Eldersburg and Taneytown locations.
Westminster Rescue Mission
The Mission Food Program sources high-quality, nutritious food from farms, restaurants, stores, the Maryland Food Bank, and other partners. Westminster Rescue Mission redistributes this food to pantries, soup kitchens, non-profit organizations, and agencies across the county, ensuring that it reaches the towns and neighborhoods where it is needed most.
