Simon House & the Pantry
Some partnerships last because they work. Others last because the people involved share a commitment to caring for their neighbors. Simon House has been a Food Pantry Partner for decades.
When people need more than one kind of help, community partners matter.
Simon House and the Emergency Community Food Pantry serve people who may be facing some of the hardest circumstances in their lives. Working together allows both organizations to connect people with more of the practical support they need.
Food is one part of getting through a difficult season. A safe place to stay, supportive services, basic supplies, and connections to other resources can matter just as much.
A safe place to begin again.
Simon House provides emergency shelter and supportive services to individuals and families experiencing homelessness.
Their shelter includes apartment style living units for families with children and for other individuals experiencing homelessness, creating a safe and stable environment while people work toward self sufficiency.
Their work reaches beyond shelter.
Through their Community Services program, Simon House helps connect people with practical support and additional community resources.

Connections & Referrals
Simon House helps people connect with additional community resources and services.
Sometimes helping someone means knowing who else can help.
Simon House and the Food Pantry each bring something important to the table. Together, we can help connect people with food while also connecting them with shelter, supportive services, basic necessities, and other community resources.
That is what a strong community partnership looks like.
We are grateful for partners who keep showing up.
Simon House has been part of the Pantry's story for decades. We are grateful for the work they do for Franklin County and for the ways our organizations continue to support the people who need us.
