FACC is a not-for-profit organization in Freeport, Illinois, and is a cooperative effort of 26 local churches.

The mission of the Freeport Area Church Cooperative is to provide emergency food, clothing, and shelter to those in need in northwest Illinois and to empower those they serve with the tools, resources, and hope needed to improve their quality of life.

Churches are assigned a particular item each month to help replenish the shelves of the food pantry maintained by the FACC. Are you interested in donating? We post our monthly assigned food item on the home page and in our bulletin, or you can always put your food or monetary donation in the provided bin or box located in Fellowship Hall.

St. Joseph and St. Mary are part of this great mission to serve the community. All items may be placed in the FACC boxes located at each church.
