Agape Ministry

admin fighting hunger, Food Pantry, homelessness, non profit

AGAPE is dedicated to fighting hunger and preventing homelessness in Warren County. Nearly 1 in 4 Warren County residents faces food insecurity—AGAPE is the answer. AGAPE is the only full-service non-profit agency dedicated to hunger and poverty issues in Warren County. We are here every day to help members of our community.

AGAPE offers a food pantry to all eligible families in Warren County. Each month, AGAPE helps more than 1,300 people with food and nearly 50% of those are children. Our food pantry is open 5 days a week to help families who need assistance. Through our modern, client choice food pantry, we ensure families face this challenging time with dignity and respect. But feeding families is just the beginning. Our goal is to provide a variety of resources that empower individuals and families to become self-sufficient. From helping families facing homelessness, to our Job STAR program, AGAPE is providing a hand up to families in need.

AGAPE Thrift is our thrift store located in Warrenton. From gently used household items and clothes to rare vintage finds…AGAPE Thrift has it all. Open 6 days per week, AGAPE Thrift is the place to look for clothes, baby items, toys, household items, furniture and vintage/antique items.

Helping AGAPE helps all of Warren County. There are several ways to help:
