Our Founding

In 1972 a Greer minister, the late Rev. Johnny Stack, and a committee of local citizens founded GCM to begin a Meals on Wheels program. The following year, 25 senior adults began receiving weekly Meals on Wheels. The Senior Dining, Food Pantry, and Sharon’s Closet programs were added between 1973 and 1984.

Who We Are

GCM is a faith-based organization with the mission to ensure that no one in the Greater Greer community is hungry, without adequate clothing, or socially isolated. We hope to earn the trust of our local community as we share the gospel of Jesus Christ.  We have grown from 25 seniors receiving meals to over 87,000 meals delivered annually. Also, over 150 families are assisted through the Food Pantry and Sharon’s Clothing Closet each month. An average of 30 Senior Diners are brought to the ministry on weekdays to fellowship with others while participating in inspirational programs and learning about safety and fitness. They are also served a warm, nutritious meal.
