Our mission

We provide emergency food and financial assistance to residents of Covington, Ohio, and its school district. Additionally, we distribute supplemental food to the school’s weekend food program, and offer special programming for Back to School and Christmas.
Opportunities

Food Assistance

Beginning in 2021, our food pantry program allows a family to select their own groceries themselves at the Meijer store in Troy. We schedule COA volunteers to meet folks at the store where they can shop for their own non-taxable food items up to a preset amount, then a volunteer will pay for the groceries at check out with our gift card rewards we earned from the Meijer Simply Give Program.

Christmas Program

For families with children, we provide a special gift for each child, aged infant to 18, and schedule shopping days at the Troy Kohl’s so parents can shop for clothing for their children. COA volunteers are at the store to assist with purchases. Shopping hours are planned for the first week or so in December.
