🍎 Healthy Food. Real Support. Stronger Families.
EVERY THURSDAY, SafeHaven Empowerment Center opens its doors to ensure that NO family in our community goes without access to nutritious food. Our weekly Food Distribution, in partnership with THRIVE Peninsula, provides a wide selection of fresh, high-quality items — all FREE to the community.
✅ Weekly Schedule
📆 Every Thursday
⏰ 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM
📍 SafeHaven Empowerment Center, 429 Thorncliff Dr, Newport News, VA
This program is first come, first served — please arrive early and share with your neighbors!
✅ What You Can Expect:
🥦 Fresh produce

🛒 A wide variety of choices so every family can shop with dignity
Our volunteers work hard to create a warm, respectful environment where families can choose what they need — no judgment, no pressure, just support.
