Early each workday morning, rain or shine, women from throughout the Redwood City and Menlo Park areas gather at the St. Francis Center. They come for food, clothing and friendship. Dozens of dedicated volunteers make the St. Francis Center a place of welcome by packing grocery bags with care. Two bags of take-home food for each client family contain all of the basic food groups. Monitored by an automated photo ID check-in system, the St. Francis Center provides groceries for an average of 3,200 people each month.
