Flat River Outreach Ministries is a greater Lowell community hub where hope, resources and gifts are shared. The hub focuses on bringing together individuals, families, churches and businesses to respond to the needs of neighbors. Founded in 1998 by 13 area churches, FROM provides a dozen programs such as a Client Choice Food Pantry, Medical Equipment Loan and a thrift shop. The thrift shop has great selection, affordable thrifted items and thrift store prices. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, and many shoppers find good stuff and make those dollars stretch farther. The food pantry helps single moms and others when the cost of food has gone up. Dollars stay in the community and supporting a locally based mission for many years.
The people were very friendly, helped out when I asked questions to help me, people that came there to get food. They were really nice. I got all the food that I needed and hope to see you again. I really appreciate everything. That they've done down there at the flat river outreach.

Went there for my first time today and was blown away at the selection and the pricing. The staff was incredibly friendly and patient with our two little ones, as well.
