The Thursday Food Pantry at St. Clement’s continues to expand its reach in the Harborview community. Under the tireless leadership of Deacon John Adeyemi and a dedicated team of volunteers, the pantry now serves more than two hundred families each month — a number that has grown steadily since the ministry’s founding in 2009.
This month, the parish has partnered with the Greater Cleveland Food Bank to secure a new refrigerated storage unit, allowing us to offer fresh produce, dairy, and protein alongside our regular dry goods distribution. „Dignity means more than a box of canned food,“ said Deacon Adeyemi. „It means fresh vegetables. It means choices. It means being seen as a whole person.“
Volunteers are welcome every Thursday from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Whether you can commit weekly or offer an hour once a month, your hands and heart are needed. Please contact outreach@stclements.org to learn more or to sign up.
