About the Zionsville Area Food Pantry
In 2009, a cooperative social ministry of the Lutheran, Methodist, United Church of Christ, Mennonite, and Evangelical Congregational congregations in the Zionsville and Upper Milford communities joined together to serve the food needs of our neighbors. In 2017 it became an independent charitable corporation.
