Hospitality House

Hospitality House is our local food pantry. They assist clients from the Walled Lake School District. The mission of Hospitality House is to end hunger in our community by providing food to those in need. Hospitality House works to fulfill this mission in two ways: by operating a food pantry that serves the residents of our immediate community—the greater Walled Lake area—and by supporting efforts to fight hunger in the wider southeastern Michigan community by providing advice and aid to pantries in other cities.

Their website is www.hospitalityhousefoodpantry.org.

They can always use more volunteers and food or monetary donations. Remember, there but for the grace of God go I.
