#1 – United Way
United Way of Central Ohio makes it easy to help South Side Community Ministries FEED FAMILIES IN NEED through your workplace. If you give to United Way through your employer and would like to direct your funds to the food pantry, you can do so by adding, “Southside Community Ministries Food Pantry, 225 E Gates St., Columbus, OH 43206, IRS#31-0923342” to your signup form.

#2 – Amazon Smile
Do you shop online at Amazon? Next time you do, go to Smile.Amazon.com. This is the same Amazon that you're familiar with and has all the same items at the same prices. But when you shop Smile.Amazon.com, they make a contribution to the charity of your choice. On your first visit, it will ask you to select your charity. Just type SSCM Food Pantry in the box that one time, and from that point on, a percentage of every purchase you make on Smile.Amazon.com will be donated to our SSCM Food Pantry and you will be helping families in need of food on the Southside of Columbus. |
