| The Lord's Pantry, run by Lucious Newsom, has been providing
support and food for the poor in the Stringtown/Haughville area of
Indianapolis from an empty field. In the winter, the group moves inside to
an abandoned warehouse. Next year, no one will have to stand in the heat or
guess where to go to receive assistance, The Lordıs Pantry broke ground on a
new facility to help service the needs of the community.
The facility is designed to provide a place for the weekly distribution of
food as well as a home for tutoring neighborhood children, a site for life
skills training and job placement, a house for an after-school healthy snack
program and a medical and dental clinic.
The new facility is being named Anna's House after Anna Molloy.
The Molloyıs have been helping Newsom hand
out food for several years and have helped get other members of the
construction community involved with the project.
The photograph above was taken at our groundbreaking ceremony in the summer of 2005. Anna's House officially "opened" in November of 2006. The generosity of our sponsors along with their hard work helped to make Anna's House a success. To all who joined in to accomplish our vision, we give our sincerest thanks.
