Oceanside First Presbyterian Church's Groceries with Grace program serves 70-80 families each month. The program provides each family with dry goods, fresh produce, and proteins. The families they serve are food insecure and are often not sure where their next meal is coming from or they have to choose between eating and other necessities.
Groceries with Grace volunteers set up tables and pop up tents then sort, bag, carry, and distribute groceries to families in their cars.
