Donations

What kind of donations do you accept at the pantry?

Canned vegetables, canned fruit, boxed meals, soups, pasta, rice, frozen items, fresh produce, snacks, baby food, and formula.

We also gladly accept donations of non-food items such as diapers, hygiene products, and paper products.  Many of our food pantry clients are very thankful for these extra items that can't be bought with their food stamps.

Drive-Thru Pantry

How does a drive-thru pantry work?

A drive-thru pantry allows you to stay in your vehicle while you are served. We will bring your food out to you and load it into your vehicle to make your visit easier for you.

If you are unable to stop by in a vehicle, we are happy to help you no matter how you might get here! We often find that people walk or use the local transit system to reach us.

The line for our pantry begins on West Richardville Street and continues on down Water Street towards the west. If possible, please do not line up more than 30 minutes before our opening times. This helps us to keep the streets clear for regular traffic

How We Can Help

How often can I get food?

Three times every month.

What information do I need to bring with me to get food?

A current ID and proof of address if possible.

Can I pick up food for other people if they can't make it to the pantry?

We understand that there are some people who can't make it to our pantry to pick up food for themselves. Please have them fill in a proxy form in either English or Spanish, or ask them to write a letter saying that they would like you to pick up food on their behalf.
