Pop-up Food Pantry

Getting food out in the community

To support those needing food assistance, the Food Bank has opened a number of pop-up pantries throughout San Francisco and Marin, utilizing volunteer support.

Pop-Up Food Pantries

We have taken the following measures to protect the health of volunteers and participants, and strike a balance between keeping our community safe while also performing the essential service of getting food to those who need it:

• Running shifts outdoors.
• Requiring volunteers and participants to bring and wear a non-valve mask or facial covering and wear gloves.
• Adhering to all sanitizing and cleaning best practices.
• Asking participants, staff, and volunteers to keep a sizable distance from one another.
• Pre-bagging groceries for participants to minimize contact between participants and volunteers.

Please review these guidelines from the City and County of San Francisco before volunteering with us.

Please note: Pop-Up Pantries are a very fluid means of distribution. The length of your shift may vary from week-to-week depending upon participant attendance and other factors. Additionally, we may not have access to any of the facilities including water or restrooms.

We encourage you to check back often and utilize the wait list as our needs are ever-changing. View all Pop-Ups here.
