The mission and purpose of Alton Community Services is to provide relief to the poor, the distressed or underprivileged throughout Alton and the surrounding area by meeting their physical and spiritual needs through the provision of food, clothing, furniture or referral services to other charitable organizations, local churches and federal, state and local government sponsored assistance programs.
Thank you to all the generous residents and businesses who have donated food in these difficult and uncertain times. Also, a special shout out to the Boy Scouts who once again stepped up with their food drive to help the less fortunate in their community!
All of your food donations go directly to Alton residents who need extra help as they face the problem of food insecurity. Since this is indeed an ongoing problem, your continued support is both needed and greatly appreciated as we seek to care for our community together.
As Alton Community Services continues to help those in need of assistance, we wish to thank the following establishments for allowing our Alton Food Pantry donation box to grace their counter: Alton Circle Store, Alton Village Pizza, Alton Home and Lumber, Aubuchon Hardware, and Alton Village Store & Gas. Their willingness to help us help the community makes us happy.
