Flat River Outreach Ministries

Flat River Outreach Ministries (FROM) is a nonprofit organization focused on bringing together individuals, families, churches and businesses to respond to the needs of our neighbors in the greater Lowell community. Organized in 1998 by 13 local churches, FROM works alongside families in need to help them improve their quality of life.

Whatbegan as a small community food pantry, serving an average of 20 families each month, is now a full-service ministry that provides a number of services including food programs, financial and utility assistance and more to over 300 families every monthin the Lowell Area School District.

A big part of FROM is also our Treasures Thrift Shop. The store is run by volunteers and all proceeds support our mission of helping our Lowell neighbors in need.
