NGCC operates as a "client choice" food bank.  Upon arrival, each client is given a Shopping List of available items to choose which items they want to take that month.  The number of items received depends on the size of the household.  We always have the basics on hand; canned vegetables, pasta, soup, Mac-n-cheese and tuna, to name just a few.  We also provide perishable items such as margarine, sliced cheese, ground beef and ground venison.  In addition, each client is given a voucher to use at the SkyPlaza IGA for either a gallon of milk, a dozen eggs or a loaf of bread.
