1 in 5 children in Omaha are food insecure.
This means that families may not know where their next meal will come from. We provide nutritious meals to many in the North Omaha community who struggle to put food on the table.
We feed anyone in need who walks through our doors, including the homeless, people down on their luck and in need of a little extra help, and families struggling to feed their growing children.
Hunger is curable, which is why the Omaha North Worship & Service Center provides the sustenance and nutrition for those who need it most.
Community Care Kitchen Lunch Program
We serve approximately 100-150 hot, nutritious lunches each weekday from 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m. to low-income and homeless individuals and families. This is the only daytime meal program in northeast Omaha, and for many in our community, this is their only substantial meal each day. Our warm, inviting environment also offers clients a welcome respite from their daily challenges, as well as an opportunity to connect and socialize with others.
The Salvation Army North receives a portion of its food from the USDA through the Emergency Food Assistance Program, also known as TEFAP. This institution is an equal opportunity provider. Read the complete USDA Nondiscrimination Policy.
Pick-up Pantry
During our weekday lunch program we also offer an emergency pick-up pantry with items such as fresh fruit and vegetables (when available), as well as bread, baked goods and other staples to help those who are experiencing hunger or food insecurity make ends meet.
Summer Lunch Program
Summer is a particularly challenging time for children and families who struggle with hunger. Because kids aren't eating meals in school as part of the free and reduced-fee lunch program, parents often struggle with additional food and child care costs that strain the budget. Children and families are welcome to visit our Community Care Kitchen daily lunch program for a hot, nutritious meal anytime they need to. We also make sure kids enrolled in our summer day camp get a nutritious breakfast, lunch and late-afternoon snack.
Kids Café
This after-school program provides a nutritious meal to middle schoolers and high schoolers before they engage in sports, homework help and other activities.
Thanksgiving and Christmas Community Meals
No one should have to spend the holidays hungry or alone, which is why we invite any and all in the community to join us for a delicious, home-cooked Thanksgiving and Christmas meal, as well as fellowship around the table.
