Food pantry and Bread Shed for those in need. Thrift Shop with clothes, housewares and toys. The mission of the Friendship House of Middlesex, Inc. is to provide supplemental food and clothing in addition to educational & resource information to the needy in the Marcus Whitman School District who have been impacted by financial problems as a result of unemployment, divorce, disability, health, domestic violence, homelessness, disaster, aging and rising cost of living. We gather, store and distribute goods to those who find themselves in a time of special need and crisis, and support their efforts to regain self sufficiency through education. Our mission is based on compassion and we respect the dignity of each person we serve. The Friendship House Pantry and Thrift Store seek to collaborate with those who share our values and our mission.
