Who We Are

Tri-Area Ministry is a non-profit ministry serving the needy in the Rolesville, Wake-Forest, Youngsville and surrounding areas. We have been providing services for over 30 years!

In the beginning, we were known as Wake County Opportunities, Inc., and had a full-time government paid director. Later, after government funding evaporated, we became known as the Wake Forest Area Crisis Ministry. Since that time, we have been entirely supported and staffed by volunteers. To better reflect the population we serve, our name was changes to Tri-Area Ministry.

What We Do

We are a food pantry and we supply food to the needy in our area.

Who Qualifies for Assistance

Clients must be residents of Rolesville, Wake Forest, Youngsville and surrounding areas. Assistance is granted according to established Board guidelines with consideration given to the client's needs and available resources. Referrals from area churches, organizations or social service agencies are helpful, but are not an absolute requirement.

Those needing assistance should come to our center in person, with at least one of the following forms of positive identification: NC drivers license, NC identification card or some form of identification that lists the person's name and current address.

A simple one-page form is completed for each client by the volunteer staff.
