Welcome
Today, Merrick Community Services stands as one of the oldest nonprofit agencies in Ramsey County, with a history of assisting individuals and families transition from poverty and become self-sufficient and stable. The core programs of MCS are Nutritional and Independence Services (comprised of the Food Shelves and MOW/Senior Services) and Employment, Family and Youth Services.
We’re growing stronger, together, every day and every month. November is a month of gratitude and giving.
We are so grateful for your support of Merrick Community Services this past year. What a year it has been:
Over 600,000 lbs of food has come through our food shelf.
We’ve provided 19,000 meals to seniors in need/
We’ve supported 1,700 families and individuals with housing, mental health, child care, and other supports.
…and we’re still going!!
