Make a donation.
It all begins with a donation. When you donate to our organization, we take the money and purchase food from our partners to distribute on the third Saturday of each month. Donate by clicking on the button or sending a check to 114 N. Third St. Pulaski, TN 38478.
Sort and pack.
On the third Thursday of the month our trailer of purchased food arrives back to our location, the old Sharp Motor building next to the United Methodist Church on N. 2nd St. in Pulaski, TN, at 1:00 PM. At 6:00 PM volunteers arrive to sort and pack boxes for our food distribution.
Distribution.
On the following Saturday from sorting and packing, RFD volunteers arrive at the scheduled location at 8:30 AM. Families and individuals begin arriving at 9:00 AM to begin receiving the packed food boxes.
Bread Ministry
RFD volunteers travel to Tullahoma weekly to pick up bread and bread items to distribute during our monthly distributions. These items are also shared throughout our community with local school backpack programs, The Pouring Spot, Pulaski Boys and Girls Club, Giles County Senior Center, God’s Storehouse, Pulaski Help Center, New Canaan Ranch, Matthew 25, and others.
