Serving the neighborhood
Camp Cupboard and Closet is a ministry of Washington UCC that has been operating for over thirty years. Entirely volunteer run, the Store, as locals call it, is a dependable, consistent resource for those in need. - Director of Camp Cupboard and Closet, Ann Osterfeld
“I was running short on everything—groceries, kids clothes—and they helped me and worked with me with things, that I couldn’t get help on from anyone else.”
John, a volunteer and community member, is just one of the many who help keep Camp Cupboard and Closet running

Corporate partnerships, donations, financial support from sister churches, and lots of volunteer hours help keep the shelves stocked with food, clothes, items for the home, knick-knacks, books, and more.
Where dignity matters
People who come to Camp Cupboard and Closet are able to shop for the items they need, be they food, clothes, toys for the kids, or a paperback to pass the time. The store provides food for between 200-300 people each month. It is a ministry that makes a difference in the lives of people.
“There are a lot of senior citizens down here that I know are getting the minimum social security and have to pay for rent, hospitalization, and other expenses. They can’t make it on what they have. If we closed down, I don’t know where they would go.”
“I didn’t want just a one-time volunteer experience, but an ongoing opportunity that would allow our group to build relationships. This church offers so many things to their community. I felt it would be perfect for my [volunteer] group.”
