How to Order From an LDS Storehouse
As part of its mission to provide for the poor and needy, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints operates a welfare program which provides food and clothing for church members when they're temporarily unable to provide for themselves. If you're a Bishop, you can order supplies from a storehouse for a church member or family by completing and submitting a couple of forms.
