Synergy's Culinary Arts Program
“I-Serve Food Pantry”
Hunger affects families in our community today. Synergy’s Culinary Arts Program is making it a point to combat hunger in our community by providing our drive-thru pantry Monday through Friday. Here, our trained and caring volunteers assist families in need with free groceries and ready to eat meals.
Meals prepared by the Synergy’s Culinary Arts Program, led by Chef Pam McNair, meet all nutrition standards set by the Department of Education & Agriculture.
Synergy’s Culinary Arts Program supplies ingredients for meals to be prepared at home, and distributes pre-made heat-and-eat meals.
In these ways, Synergy’s Culinary Arts Program provides relief to meet the needs of its surrounding community.
