CARE Area
Compassion and Relief Efforts
This area houses the food pantry, clothing closet, dental clinic and more. Here we provide relief for those in need.
The Food Pantry operates on Tuesdays from 10:00am-2:00pm. We serve all Little Rock Zip Codes, and you can attend the Food Pantry once per month. To make a reservation for the Food Pantry call (501) 396-3333 on Mondays between 10:00am-1:00pm for the following Tuesday.
Clothing Closet: Everyone has a basic need for clothing. We are fortunate to receive many donations and have multiple volunteers to sort them. This gives us the opportunity to work with organizations and ministries in our community to resource them with clothing and small household items. If we are the clothes provider, organizations can spend their valuable time investing in those who benefit from their specific gifts and talents.
Our Clothing Closet serves many roles:
Tuesday 10am-2pm – Our Food Pantry friends have the opportunity to shop during their reservation time.
Wednesday (time varies) – Re-Entry Program Shopping
Thursday 9am-3pm – Donation Drop off and CALL Mall Shopping
**We will begin accepting clothing donations again starting in July**

Development Area
This area houses our adult education classrooms and other spaces where we can have classes and one-on-one, life-on-life interaction. This space will also offer us the ability to create space for others in the city who are working towards the same goals to connect and sharpen one another. Lastly, this space will be available to be rented for events in the city, with the proceeds going directly back into the ministries of the City Center.
Adult Education
Our adult education classroom is operated by Pulaski County Special School District (PCSSD). They offer a multitude of classes including GED, Wage Certificates, Career Readiness Certificates, along with many others. Click here to see the full list.
