Recognizing the need of vulnerable families in the greater Williamsburg area, Grove Christian Outreach Center became its own nonprofit charitable organization in 2004 with a focus on providing food, clothing and financial assistance to those in need. In the last 20 plus years, programs have evolved and shifted to meet the changing needs of our community to include:
What started as a single wide trailer in front of one of the mobile home parks in Grove is today a 6,000 square-feet custom built facility that houses all of the outreach center’s programs and services. Since moving into the facility in 2013, Grove Christian has served anywhere between 356 and 878 unique households annually through its pantry program alone with that number reaching an all-time high in 2024.
In 2024, a total of 878 unique households were served through our Pantry a total of 10,400 times and a total of 40,734 people through various programs.
Facing the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Grove Christian Outreach Center reevaluated its services to center more on the overall health of the community by offering more access to healthy foods. Families now do their own shopping in The Gathering Place, Williamsburg’s first free grocery market, for products that include local produce, dairy items and ready-to-eat meals such as salads, in addition to staples like soups, pastas, side dishes and other pantry items.
