Vina Moses Center provides low-barrier assistance to approximately 7,000 people in Benton County each year: from people experiencing homelessness to families barely making ends meet. Our Vina’s Closet at Monroe is a collaboration with South Benton Food Pantry to give necessities like clothes, shoes, hygiene items, and more to communities where they live.
