Our clothing closet provides clothes for all ages, as well as, furniture, small and large appliances, miscellaneous household items, and toys. Our clothing closet is completely reliant on clothing donations. We have several drop off sheds open 24 hours every day located on the west side of our building for donations of clothing. Delivery of other items can be done on Thursdays from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Since opening in 2004, we have handed out over 500,000 articles of clothing, along with countless numbers of these other items. All of this was given to those in need at no cost.
Financial Literacy
We offer financial literacy in the form of a thirteen week course called Financial Peace University. Financial Peace University uses curriculum from nationally-syndicated radio talk show host and best-selling author Dave Ramsey. This course covers everything from getting out of debt, budgeting, and saving for emergencies to investing, planning for the future, and giving. As part of the class, one-on-one counseling is also available to address specific issues.
Benefits:
- People are empowered to take responsibility for themselves and their financial future.
- Valuable principles that help parenting skills, coping skills, marriage and employment skills are taught.
- People learn to live on a budget that actually works for them.
- Increases self confidence and gives hope.
- Increases control over income and expenses.
Financial Counseling
For individuals/families who have debt outside of a home mortgage or even a crisis situation, we will help establish a sound monthly budget, plan for paying off debt, and address specific personal issues surrounding their individual needs. (Creditors, judgements, foreclosures, bankruptcy, extra jobs, etc). It includes an initial 2-hour session and 3 months of follow-up (up to four additional hours) which is dependent on each client’s specific needs. The four additional hours can include limited debt negotiation. Unlike most Personal Financial Counselors, Salt & Light is not getting commissions on selling insurance or investments. Clients can be sure they are getting advice that is objective with their best interest at heart.

Madonna House provides a food and clothing program. Any family in need can come to Madonna House for a food basket. Requirements are to sign their name on an income guideline form, and to show proof of current address. Current Drivers License, State ID, Medical Card, or utility bills are acceptable forms of proof. The food pantry is supplied with food from the Central Illinois Food Bank. We receive commodities, free of charge, and we can purchase other food items at a reduced cost. Madonna House served 307 families (816 individuals) in October, with a noted increase in the average number of families served in the last 2 months.
The Clothing Closet is also a program we offer. Members from the community and local businesses donate used clothing which supplies our clothing closet. Due to Marion Gardner Jackson Charitable Trust, Madonna House was able to build a new garage which has allowed us to quadruple the size of the clothing closet and allow us to hang the clothing so that it is easier for families to find what they need. We are now able to serve a greater number of people in need in a more efficient manner. In an average month Madonna House serves 60 families with the food bank and 44 families with the clothing pantry.
Hours of operation are:
FOOD PANTRY
Tuesday 1-3
Saturday 10-12

Assessment/Referral
At MUST we believe that to meet our clients' needs, we really need to get to know them as persons. MUST provides individual assessments for each client accessing weekday services. When able, we meet needs. When appropriate, we provide referral to other resources in the community. To this end, all MUST program offices participate in the Pathways Community Network.
Hot Meals
At MUST we believe that preparing and serving a hot meal to persons living in poverty is an ideal way to live out one’s faith. MUST provides a community lunch each weekday at 12:00 pm in the Loaves and Fishes Community Kitchen on the Marietta Campus. Anyone in the community is welcome to come, sign in, and partake of a meal prepared and served by volunteers. No documentation is necessary. Persons from group homes, weekday services clients, shelter guests, and neighbors who find their homes on the streets and in the woods of Cobb County all benefit from this special resource.
Food Pantry
At MUST we believe that the blessings of our community are ample enough to ensure that no person need go hungry. MUST provides canned and other non-perishable goods free of charge to Cobb and Cherokee County residents in need. Families and individuals may obtain food through one of MUST's 3 food pantries during regular service hours (10 am - 2 pm Mon - Fri). Households may receive food up to four times per year. Photo ID and proof of residence are required documentation, along with social security numbers for everyone requesting service, or birth certificates for children.
Clothes Closet
At MUST we believe that "hand-me-downs" are not just for little brothers and sisters but for neighbors in need as well. MUST provides new and used clothing free of charge to Cobb and Cherokee County residents in need. Families and individuals may obtain clothing through one of MUST's 3 clothes closets during regular service hours (10 am - 2 pm Mon - Fri). While clothing allotments per individual are generous, quantities of specific clothing items are often limited. Photo ID and proof of residence are required documentation, along with social security numbers for everyone requesting service, or birth certificates for children. Individuals can receive (twice a year) four pairs of jeans, a coat, a pair of sneakers, four pairs of underwear, four pairs of socks and twenty other items of clothing. Beyond their initial allotments, persons who are homeless can access additional clothing resources on a week by week basis.
Financial Assistance
At MUST we believe that the prevention of homelessness begins with avoiding evictions and foreclosures. MUST provides emergency financial assistance with rent and/or utilities to persons living in Cobb and Cherokee County. Application for financial assistance must be made in person at your local MUST program office during regular service hours (10 am - 2 pm Mon - Fri). Availability of funds varies during the course of the year, and each application is reviewed on a case by case basis. If you have questions about financial assistance, and/or your eligibility we encourage you to call your local MUST office.
Bread and Sweets
At MUST we believe that too much food gets wasted and thrown away in our community. MUST provides perishable donated breads and sweets to persons living in Cobb and Cherokee County. There are no documentation requirements for eligibility; however, there are limits on the quantity and frequency which vary with availability.
Employment and Education
At MUST we believe that breaking the cycle of poverty often begins with equipping persons with the skills necessary to obtain and maintain a job. MUST provides both individualized job coaching and group-centered learning activities in an attempt to enhance the marketable skills of persons living in poverty. Our education offerings include budgeting and other lifeskills classes. Many of our educational offerings are designed to complement our core programs: housing, financial assistance, food pantry, etc. However, some education and employment offerings are stand-alone programs, where people can access services simply by requesting them at one of our program offices during regular service hours (10 am - 2 pm Mon - Thurs).
Seasonal Programs
At MUST we believe that each child, each family, deserves to experience the fullness of life. MUST provides a number of special seasonal programs, many of which focus on the lives of children. Most of these programs originated in the hearts and hands of our volunteers. Whether it be putting a sack lunch, a backpack full of school supplies, or a special toy in the hands of a child, we take pride in filling in the gaps. If you are interested in any of our seasonal programs, please contact your local MUST office. Our programs include:
