Who We Serve

​The pantry is for households in need of food assistance.
 
You can visit the pantry once per month. If you need more food support between visits, check the More Food Resources section further down this page.

What You Can Get

​Based on what we have available, you may receive:
  • Shelf-stable items like canned goods, pasta, and cereal
  • Frozen or refrigerated items when available
  • Personal care items such as soap, shampoo, or toothpaste
 
Items vary from month to month depending on donations and deliveries.
