Utility Assistance

If circumstances have left it difficult to make ends meet, SERVE offers residents of Stafford County financial support through Dominion EnergyShare for electric disconnect notices. If you need assistance please call 540-288-8223 for screening and more information. Assistance is done by appointment only on Tues and Thur as long as funds are available.

Food Pantry

SERVE's Food Pantry provides assistance to families once a month. Our families receive a box of nutritious food, bags of breads, meat and produce meant to provide for a family for a week. We encourage those in need to go to the Department of Social Services and apply for food stamps. For the most part, our pantry helps families with their food needs by filling the gap between monthly assistance.

We promise to help our neighbors in emergency need of food pantry assistance, financial assistance and prescription assistance to the best of our ability. This means we will work hard to raise awareness of the need in Stafford County and to gain support from and for our communities less fortunate. These efforts will encompass a great multitude of actions, all of which we will need help with! We are able to provide a hand up for our neighbors in emergency need because of your support of SERVE.

Much of this support comes through individuals as well as through organizations and agencies like the Stafford County Government, the Rappahannock United Way and the combined federal campaign, the Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank,  The Community Foundation including The Honeywell Charitable Fund and a variety of other partnerships with businesses, churches and other organizations!
