About Us

Welcome to the Huntsville Assistance Program (HAP) Emergency Food Pantry and Emergency Financial Assistance Programs. Our organization is committed to helping our neighbors in need in the Madison County community.

Our Emergency Food Pantry provides free nutritious food to individuals and families who are experiencing food insecurity. We understand that many families struggle to put food on the table, especially during times of crisis, which is why we strive to provide healthy and diverse food options to those who need it most. We welcome all individuals and families in need, regardless of their background or circumstances.

In addition to our Emergency Food Pantry, we also offer an Emergency Financial Assistance program that provides financial support to individuals and families who are facing an unexpected financial crisis. Financial assistance can be gained by clients who need additional help with rent, utilities, or mortgage payments.  HAP strives to provide a safety net for those who are struggling to make ends meet. Our compassionate volunteers work with each individual to understand their unique situation and provide assistance that meets their specific needs.

HAP was founded over 20 years ago by seven local churches with a desire to help others in a more interconnected and efficient way.  Currently, member churches number over 65 and support the HAP organization at all three sites with donations of grocery items, volunteers, and financial resources.  

At the Huntsville Assistance Program, we believe that everyone deserves access to necessities like food and shelter. We are proud to serve our community and work toward a future where no one goes hungry or without essential resources. Thank you for considering our organization, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if you need assistance or would like to support our mission.
