This is a local community outreach to the homeless and jobless.  They provide overnight shelter and operate the Good Shepherd kitchen to provide meals to large number of people each week day. Their three dormitories have 102 beds (48 for men, 24 for women and 30 for families).  In 2014 they sheltered more than 638 people including 61 children.  They also served more than 81,502 meals at the Good Shepherd Kitchen after adding dinner this year. They fed about 158 for lunch and 94 for dinner every day.

In January Allied Churches began a new partnership with a new Food Pantry in Mebane.  The Manna Market began distributes groceries at First Baptist Church @ 301 S. Third St. every third Tuesday of each month from 10 AM-1 PM.

Allied helped an average of 32 people/day at the Drop in Resource Center where folks came to get assistance, job services and resources, distributing over $158,000 for emergency assistance this year.

In 2013 they opened a Food Pantry and in 2014 served approximately 608 families or 1423 people groceries each month.  They distributed over 663,900 lbs. of food from 9/9/13-6/30/14.  They accept food donations on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 12-3 PM on site and at Holly Hill Mall Monday-Friday from 10 AM-12PM, 3:30-6 PM and on Saturday from 12-4 PM.  Food is distributed Monday-Friday from 3:30-6:00 PM.
