Food pantry – Volunteers assist clients in selecting from a variety of fresh foods, meat, canned goods, packaged foods and bread items.

Personal care items – When available, clients can choose a few personal essentials.

Diapers – When available, clients can receive a package of diapers for children under 3 years of age (or older with special arrangements). COPE is partnered with the Nebraska Diaper Bank. If you need diapers but you’re not in our area, check the Partner Agency page.
