Bishop's Storehouse
Local Bishop's Storehouse
The Bishops' Storehouse, a place where those in need can go to obtain food and other supplies at the recommendation of their bishop. A storehouse filled with commodities provided by fast offerings and other generous donations from LDS Church members. Food and supplies are given to those in need and can also be sent to those affected by natural disasters, wars, or economic crises.
“While [bishops’] storehouses provide many of the same services as any retail food store, not one has a cash register. … These are goods that money cannot buy. No price tag is put on the time, effort, and love so generously contributed to the common good of those in need.”
—President Thomas S. Monson
