For 47 years, CROS Ministries has proudly served as “boots on the ground,” directly supporting our hungry neighbors. Our mission is to provide food for the hungry and food insecure in collaboration with our partners in the community. Our services include operating seven food pantries across multiple locations in Palm Beach County, including one in Delray Beach, and one in Martin County, distributing bags of food to families and individuals in need. Through our Caring Kitchen program in Delray Beach, we serve hot meals and deliver meals to homebound residents. Additionally, our gleaning program recovers fresh fruits and vegetables from farmers’ fields in Palm Beach, Martin, and Hendry Counties. All services are provided without regard to race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, veteran, or disability status.
To provide food for the hungry and the food insecure in collaboration with our partners in the community.
In 1978, a group of United Methodist Churches in Palm Beach County joined forces to create Christians Reaching Out to Society, Inc. or as we are known today, CROS Ministries. Overtime, we became interfaith, creating partnerships with all denominations, faiths, community groups, and local nonprofit agencies to address hunger issues and create solutions to meet those needs. Today, we stand as a beacon of hope, tirelessly working on the front lines to directly serve families and individuals facing hunger and food insecurity. All services are provided without regard to race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, age, national origin, ancestry, citizenship, veteran, or disability status.
