2026 Anchored Ministries Food Truck Takeover
Gear up for the upcoming Anchored Ministries Food Truck Takeover on Saturday, May 16, 2026, from 3 PM–8 PM! This exciting one-day community festival brings together incredible local food trucks, live entertainment, family-friendly fun, and a shared mission—to clothe our community with dignity and provide essentials to those in need.
Whether you’re looking to attend, sponsor the event, volunteer, or support the mission behind it, your involvement helps fuel real impact in our local community. Come hungry, bring your friends, and be part of something bigger than a meal.
What is the Food Truck Takeover?
The Anchored Food Truck Takeover is a high-energy, family-friendly community festival designed to bring people together for great food, live entertainment, and a powerful purpose.
This annual event supports our Christ-centered mission to clothe our community with dignity and provide essential resources to local families in need. While the event is packed with fun, it’s also a meaningful fundraiser, helping fuel programs like our Mobile Clothing Closets, Back to School Program, Christmas Program, Prom Boutique, and other community initiatives.
It’s more than a food festival. It’s a gathering of neighbors, businesses, churches, and families who believe that when a community comes together, real impact happens.
What to expect?
Come ready for an afternoon filled with:
- A variety of local food trucks serving up incredible options for every taste
- Live music and entertainment throughout the event
- Family-friendly activities and games
- Raffles, merchandise, and opportunities to support the mission
- A welcoming environment designed for connection and community
Admission is free and open to all. Food trucks keep their sales, so when you purchase from them, you’re supporting local small businesses while also helping create an event that fuels ongoing ministry impact.
Whether you stay for an hour or the whole afternoon, you’ll leave with a full belly and a deeper connection to the community around you.
Why Participate?
Because community matters.
When you attend the Anchored Food Truck Takeover, you’re doing more than enjoying great food, you’re helping strengthen a mission that serves hundreds of local families each year.
Your presence helps:
- Increase awareness of local needs
- Strengthen partnerships with area businesses and organizations
- Generate critical funding through sponsorships, raffles, merchandise, and donations
- Expand programs that provide clothing, shoes, hygiene items, school supplies, Christmas gifts, and more
This event allows us to invite the broader community into the heart of what Anchored Ministries does every day, meeting practical needs while building meaningful relationships rooted in dignity and hope.
It’s fun with purpose.

Attend
Show up, bring friends, invite your neighbors, and share the event on social media. The more people who attend, the greater the awareness and impact.
Donate
Make a financial gift before, during, or after the event to directly support our programs. Every dollar helps provide essential items to local families.
Sponsor
Businesses and individuals can partner with us as sponsors, helping offset event costs and maximize funds directed toward ministry programs. Sponsorship is also a powerful way to demonstrate community leadership and support local impact.
