The South Omaha food pantry at Mission For All Nations has seen the client load increase 83% in 2009 compared to the 1st quarter of 2008 and our funding is down by more than 30%.Mission For All Nations is a faith-based charitable organization founded to put Love into Action by providing food, clothing, shelter and other necessities to people of all ethnic backgrounds who are in need. We are creating an environment where lives are being changed instead of fostering dependency. Mission For All Nations provided 72,807 client services in 2008 and we expect a more than 50% increase in 2009.
Last year our Homelessness and Hunger Prevention program supplied food pantry orders to provide a 5-7 day supply of food equivalent to over ½ a million meals to 26,870 individuals in economic distress along with personal hygiene products for each household. That is more food distributed directly to clients than any other pantry in the state of Nebraska. Additionally, nearly 20,000 clients received clothing and household goods. Overall, nearly $2 million in necessities were distributed to improve the lives of people experiencing an urgent need.

Bringing Hope the Anchor of the Soul to South Omaha!

Jennifer's Story
Jennifer with her daughter
Jennifer with her daughter
"I can't remember the last time I was at a pantry." Jennifer Miller said. She has three boys Jordon, Nicholas, and Dallas plus a girl, Alexis. Jennifer was recently released from prison and is trying to put her life back together. In addition to food and hygiene items she and her daughter, Alexis, were able to look for clothing. She is happy because she just started working at Thrift World. Jennifer was very appreciative and said, "This is going to help us a lot."
