The Story

Open Arms Care Center is the only foodbank in Gilbert, AZ. Open Arms provides food, personal hygiene products and other essentials to over 1,500 Gilbert residents every month.

What We Do

On the third weekend of every month, we collect non-perishable food items at MISSION.  Last year, we collected over 25,000 pounds of food through our 3rd Sunday Charity initiative.

How You Can Help

There are two ways you can get involved:

  • Volunteer before and after Saturday night or Sunday services to load the trailer at the center of the campus with food donated by the people of MISSION. You can also help take the collected food to Open Arms on Sunday afternoon.
  • Bring non-perishable food items to MISSION on the 3rd weekend of every month. Click on the link below to see what the current food needs are at Open Arms.
