ABOUT US
Our Motto: Love until they ask why
The Storehouse is a non-profit, food distribution program for families in the greater Covington area. We partner with local businesses, churches, civic groups, and schools to ease the burden of those we serve. Currently we serve close to 250 families weekly, and 8 different ministries including drug/rehabilitation programs and community meals.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to serve our neighbors, who are struggling with, or are vulnerable to food insecurity, by providing nourishing food, prayer, and referrals to other services.
Our vision is to improve the quality of life for our neighbors beyond food security.
