*During the Covid-19 Crisis, we have implemented a drive-up system for client's and volunteer's safety. Please call when you arrive at the ministry to be served at 828-669-9404  
During the Pandemic, SVCM offers a “client choice” food pantry where clients call in and a volunteer or staff member takes their food order from the daily food list of available items. Clients can come every 21 days for food. Clients can check once a week to see if free produce is available. Visit Bounty and Soul's Produce Distribution Schedule here.

SVCM distributes TEFAP (The Emergency Food Assistance Program) to all eligible clients.  
Our Clothes Closet has men’s, women’s, and children’s clothing as well as shoes.  Clients can come every 21 days. They can choose a limited number of each item for every person in the household.  We also have sheets, towels, and blankets which they are eligible for every 6 months. We also have household items such as plates, bowls, glasses, silverware and basic kitchen utensils and small appliances. ​
