Donations
We are proud that our CLC Food Pantry distributed approximately 41,000 lbs. of food last year. Sadly, the need continues to exceed our ability to keep up. You can make a difference in the life of our students by donating to the CLC Food Pantry. Your gift is 100% tax-deductible, and every dollar donated allows us to purchase up to four meals through Second Harvest North Central Food Bank for our students!

Donate to the CLC Food Pantry or mail a check to 501 W. College Dr. Brainerd, MN 56401 Attn: Erich Heppner

Non-perishable food and personal hygiene items may be donated directly to either CLC Food Pantry location.

Suggested items for donations include:
