We serve delicious, nutritious meals each weekday to those in need in Quincy, IL.
For many individuals, their meal at Horizons is their only source of fruits and vegetables. Our nutrition goal is to optimize every available resource for fresh fruits and vegetables, and in turn work to prevent obesity and other chronic diseases.
Horizons and our partners are working together to create a healthy, thriving community.

Our new food pantry is now open in our new facility at 224 South 8th.
We’ve doubled the size of our pantry which allows us to more variety and accept larger donations.
We’re a client-choice pantry which means that instead of a fixed box of items, the client can select from a wide variety of foods that best fit their needs.

United Way of Adams County, Inc. (Adams County, IL)
United Way of Adams County's Day of Caring was held on Friday, June 7. This opportunity was a chance for volunteers to give back to their community through hands-on service projects with one of United Way’s partner agencies that the campaign resources support.
We had 9 partner agency sites; Horizons Social Services, Community For Christ Assistance Center in Camp Point, Cheerful Home Child Care & Early Learning Center, Transitions of Western Illinois, The Salvation Army Family Store - Quincy, IL, Advocacy Network for Children, City of Quincy, Illinois, Government, Quincy Family YMCA, and Mississippi Valley Council, Boy Scouts of America at Camp Saukenauk.
Over 100 volunteers gave their time and energy from these area businesses: Knapheide Manufacturing, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois, Blessing Health System, United Community Credit Union,Phibro Animal Health Corporation, Mercantile Bank, Adams Fiberr, Dot Foods, and the Quincy Family YMCA. Thank you to our headline sponsor Blessing Health System. Thank you also Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois and MyCountyMarket.
