Pomfret Street Outreach
Currently Distributing at the Stuart Community Center at 415 Franklin St, Carlisle, PA
Our Pomfret Street Outreach was launched with a heart to meet the practical needs of our neighbors while demonstrating the love of Christ through genuine connection. Our mission is to build strong, lasting relationships and offer hope to everyone we encounter.
We host free food and diaper distributions on the 1st and 3rd Fridays of each month, welcoming anyone in need. Our dedicated volunteers serve with compassion and purpose—loving Carlisle one person at a time.
This work is made possible through the generosity of our community and supporters like you. Together, we’re making a difference.
Distribution
Diaper Giveaway
The Pomfret Street Outreach provides diapers to children in need to keep them dry, clean and healthy. We do this through a partnership with Healthy Steps Diaper Bank.
50 diapers per month are allotted to each child that comes through our doors. Basic demographic information is colleted to ensure that our diaper inventory is distributed evenly amongst the entire community. We are believing for the health and well-being of all families who visit us.
Food Giveaway
We make every effort to provide ingredients for at least two meals to be made by families who visit us. Additionally, we work to provide food items that seem generally needed throughout our guest population such as, dry goods and canned goods.
The items we provide are freely given to those in our community who visit us on our distribution days. We are able to do this through the generous support of the community that we serve.
Who we are and how it started
About Us and Our Mission
The Pomfret Street Outreach is an initiative of Spirit Empowered Ministries, which was founded in May of 2019 to offer an expression of love to the community. The nonprofit organization looks to serve the community through building relational bonds with partners, seeking God in prayer, and equipping the community to walk in a spirit of love and hope.
In April 2020, we began to distribute food, diapers, hand sanitizer, face masks, and other household goods due to the Covid-19 shutdown. What started out as a way to meet a practical need for the community, became an avenue for us to meet new people and develop relational bonds that go beyond “public service”.
Our desire is to love the residents of Carlisle in a way that provides assistance to those in need as well as being a safe place for those in our community to gather. We have consistently been serving Carlisle families in this manner since launching the Pomfret Street Outreach initiative.
