Food is the most critical service item that we offer to our community neighbors. It gives them the sustenance to trudge forward during tough periods of life. Over 130,000 pounds of food was distributed through our Food Pantry in 2024, 10 home repairs were made, and 7 automobiles were repaired for those in our service area of New Kent and upper James City Counties. These numbers represent a multitude of hope given to those who had nowhere else to turn for help.
2025 is a great time for you to be a “cause for change” in this community through your volunteerism and financial giving to our non-profit. Become involved today!

Here we are about to step into 2025. From feeding hundreds, to providing essential roofs and handicapped ramps, to presenting a single mom with a “new to her car,” and signing a contract for Grace Ministries/New Food Pantry, PGO has had an incredible year. What an awesome and humbling blessing it is to be the Director of an organization that touches the lives of so many. You are all to be commended for your part in these accomplishments.
As we find ourselves in the height of the Christmas season, I am reminded today of the song lyric that says, “May the Spirit of Christmas be always in our hearts.” It seems this sentence speaks directly to our non-profit organization. We are blessed to change lives, show love, hug on, and care for people all through the year.
I wish each of you the Peace of Jesus this season and the bounty of a Happy 2025!
Melanie King, Executive Director
