Providing Hope, One Meal at a Time

At the Dickson County Help Center, we believe in the power of community and the call to serve our neighbors in need. Your generous food donations help us feed and support families facing tough times. By donating, you directly contribute to our mission of providing essential assistance and fostering a supportive environment for those in need. 

Every can, box, and bag of food brings hope and nourishment to those who need it most. Sharing your blessings, you help us fulfill our mission to love and care for one another. There are many ways to join us in this vital cause and make a difference in the lives of our community members today.

Give to Our Food Bank

Our food bank operates on a simple foundation built around what we call our “base.” Each family begins with a standard selection of core staples such as canned meats, vegetables, fruits, beans, pasta, and rice. These are the everyday items that help form full, home-cooked meals. From there, we build upon that base to fill an entire shopping cart with additional foods that bring variety and nutrition to every household.


Through community donations, grocery rescue partnerships, and support from Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee, we are able to supplement each cart with fresh produce, meat, dairy, drinks, and other household staples. Every contribution, whether it is a single can or a full grocery bag, helps ensure that our neighbors in need receive not just enough food, but the right food to sustain their families.
