Our Contributions to Hernando County Families

DayStar’s food pantry regularly donates to other local charities with extra bread and pastries when there is an overabundance, including Joseph's House, Jericho Road Ministries, Dawn Center, Love Thy Neighbor, and Forest Oaks Lutheran Church.

The food pantry provides for example, a family of four, meat, butter, bread, pastries, and non-perishable items that equal 25 pounds of food. This is a substantial amount of food, by any food pantry standard.

Last Thanksgiving, DayStar was able to provide holiday food for over 250 families.

For over fourty (40) years, DayStar has been helping the elderly and retired in the community who are living on fixed incomes and are in a day-to-day struggle to maintain a normal standard of living.

The DayStar Life Center plans to continue their dedication to helping more people, sharing their abundance through additional outreach projects, and continuing to partner with more organizations in the area.
