The Way of Compassion
PANTRY
We offer a client choice food pantry in East Anaheim. Residents of Orange County are able to shop through the pantry just like a grocery store and select from a wide variety of items that best fit their family needs.
VOLUNTEER
The Dwelling Place Food Pantry is designed like a grocery store where guests can participate in a shopping experience in an environment filled with beauty and hope. We believe this means going beyond just giving away free food: we value connection, relationship, and walking with our guests on a journey of transformation.
FARMERS MARKET
We also operate a free, no appointment necessary “farmers market model” food distribution pantry on Saturdays in West Anaheim. You can expect to experience joy and hope, select food, and receive prayer if needed.
