Notice to the Patrons of
Beyond The Sanctuary (BTS):
Serving Rochester, NY since 2017, Beyond the Sanctuary addresses the physical and emotional challenges of poverty and hunger in a collaborative, compassionate, and dignified manner. We help community members move from assistance to become self-sustaining.
At the beginning of March, the BTS Board of Directors made the difficult decision to close the food pantry and all associated services. The last food distribution was made on March 6, 2024. This was not an easy decision because BTS strived to never turn anyone away. Due to the current financial situation, a resolution to halt all non-grant funded BTS programming was made.
The board is working strategically to address the financial issues and to establish a path forward. To find out about other sources for food and emergency services in your area, please see the links below. Thank you for your understanding and past patronage.
Sincerely,
BTS Board of Directors
