Central House Meals

The Central House at ACH has limited cooking facilities, and a lot of families lately who would like a Casserolewarm meal in the evening.

If you would like to help out, please provide a well-balanced meal such as some type of meat, a fresh salad and/or a side dish to include vegetables. Breads, rolls and desserts are not needed as we get daily donations from local Publix and Fresh Market bakeries.

PLEASE NOTE: We can no longer accept meals that are prepared or cooked off site unless they come from licensed food establishments such as grocery stores or restaurants. However, you may prepare meals, salads, etc. in our kitchen in the house.

The kitchen is equipped with microwaves, a toaster oven, crock pots, a rice/vegetable steamer, an electric griddle, warming trays for serving, and a specialty oven that can accommodate a ½ pan tray at a time.
