Milford Miami Ministries was established to continue the service that Mary Miller did for numerous years in the Milford area. Trinity is one of thirteen area churches which provide the funds, volunteers and supplies necessary to provide financial assistance and/or food to the less fortunate in our area.

MMM maintains an office and pantry at the Milford Church of Christ. (844 State Route 131, Milford, Ohio)[513-248-1114]. The office is staffed by volunteers and the pantry is open on Tuesday and Thursday mornings (9:00 A.M. to 12:00 P.M.) and on Wednesday evenings (6:30 P.M. to 8:00 P.M.). The client needs to have a picture I.D., two pieces of mail addressed to their current address, the bill and/or disconnect notice, name, address and telephone number of their landlord at the time they meet with a volunteer.

MMM can help with electric bills, water bills, rent, prescriptions, and sometimes an extra ordinary request. Payments are made directly to the landlord, utility company or pharmacy once all of the information provided is verified and the Treasurer is notified that a distribution is to be made.

MMM also provides school supplies to students in August, a Thanksgiving turkey and a box of food in November, and Christmas gifts and a box of food in December. These special projects require a client to sign up in October for Thanksgiving and Christmas. The school counselors provide names of the needy children or a request can be made at the MMM office.
