How To Get Help With Clothing

Common Goods is our clothing assistance store open throughout the week. You can find the specific hours below. Donate items at any time by placing them in the small shed behind the building.

• Bring your photo ID.

• For your first visit, bring one of these items for each child: Medical card, birth certificate, school report card.

• Bring custody papers (if you are not the child’s parent).

• Park and enter main entrance at the Community Life Center, where someone will help you fill out an application (your information will be stored in our system for at least a year).

• You may receive clothing items once per month.

How To Get Help With Food

Food distribution takes place each 3rd Friday of the month from 9:30-11:30am at First Christian Church Community Life Center (6900 Market Ave. N, Canton, OH 44721; located behind main building).

• Bring your photo ID.

• Distribution is currently operating as a drive-thru experience in order to limit direct contact. Please drive past “Entrance B” and under the overhang where people will be waiting to distribute food to you. Please note, our food distribution will be relocating in July to the Community Life Center.

• If this is not a scheduled food distribution, visit the main desk near “Entrance B,” and the receptionist will help you with an application.

• Anyone receiving food must be eligible according to federal poverty guidelines.

• Read the “And Justice For All” non-discriminatory notice.
