Household Financial Assistance

Helping families in crisis.

SOS has been serving residents of the Greater Magnolia area and West Montgomery County for 37 years, providing food, clothing, household goods and financial assistance with housing costs, utility bills, medical expenses and transportation needs.

We generally can consider providing financial assistance under these programs every 6 months and are able to help clients with a number of essential needs:


  • Rent and Utility Assistance - We can assist with up to $300 toward utility (water/sewer, propane, or electric bills) or up to $500 toward rent within 7 days of the due date. We cannot help with bills that are not yet due or future payments.
  • Health Services Assistance - We partner with local providers to assist clients to obtain the following services:
    • Vision - Eye exam and single lens prescription glasses;
    • Dental - Dental exam and basic services;
    • Medical Evaluation and Referrals - Assistance in diagnosing and obtaining necessary services;
    • Mental Health Services - Coordination with Yes to Youth;
    • Prescriptions - Assistance in filling a prescription from your medical provider;

Food Assistance

The SOS Food Pantry is located on Friendship Drive. We partner with Magnolia County Food Bank and with the generous citizens of Montgomery County to provide food to clients who live in the Magnolia ISD area of Montgomery County.


We do not discriminate based upon religion, sexual preference, age, ethnicity or race. Our mission is to serve all the community.


Our self-service Food Pantry allows families to select meat, produce, canned food, bread, pastries, desserts, and toiletries.
