Spencerport Ecumenical Food Shelf
Want to support and donate?
Watch the weekly bulletin to see what the non-perishable food need of the week is. Donations are left inside the main entrance to the Church in the marked bin on the floor.
Need assistance? Multiple community organizations work together to provide for the many needs...
The procedure is simple. The resident will call this number 585-397-0290, leave a message and someone from the Food Shelf will get back to them to get their information. The food will be delivered by a volunteer after a mutually agreed upon time is set up. You are eligible to receive supplies every 60 days or four times a year.

Cartons for Christmas
Crop Walk
This walk takes place along the canal between Spencerport and Adams Basin. Walkers are sponsored to raise money for Church World Service and the local food shelf. Typically, this event is held on the first Sunday in May!
Dress a Girl
This ministry has volunteers of all ages! Multigenerational tasks include cutting fabric, sewing dresses and dolls, stuffing, and braiding yarn into hair to be attached to the hand-drawn faces of the dolls that match the dress for young girls.
Dress a Girl is part of a worldwide effort to ensure that all girls are decently clothed and thus, less subject to abduction by human traffickers. Dresses are made from sturdy cotton or cotton-blend fabrics that are easy to care for and provide modest coverage. Several patterns are acceptable.
