  • Bradford Churches Food Shelf (located downstairs at the Bradford Academy) serves Corinth residents during the time of Covid-19. Hours are:
    Monday through Thursday — 3-4pm
    Friday — 11-12 noon
    The Academy is not open so we are helping people with their food needs by way of the gym door. Please come to the top of the ramp there and wait to be invited in by a food shelf volunteer. Only one person at a time will be allowed to come in to make food selections. Please practice social distancing as you wait for your turn by waiting in your vehicle or keeping at least 6′ from others. Wear a face mask. Everyone will need to be registered so we know the number of adults/children in the household and address/phone number. For questions, please call Jenny at 222-5108.
