Neighborhood Pantries

Together with partners, we are now running 215 pantries, located in easily accessible locations like schools, churches, and community-based organizations. For safety reasons, we are running most of them outdoors, and some as drive-thrus, and the groceries are pre-bagged. Still, a typical weekly pantry offers the participants carrots, potatoes, onions, apples, oranges, and lettuce, along with rice and chicken or eggs.

This service brings food directly into the neighborhoods where it is needed the most and caters to populations ranging from families to seniors. As a result, we’re addressing the problem of hunger on a grassroots level, involving the greater community in the effort to ensure that no one has to worry about their next meal. Not now, during the pandemic, or tomorrow.
