Food Programs in Our District
March 25, 2020
My team and I put together an interactive map of all the food banks, food pantries, and soup kitchens in our district. Please share with those who need extra help during this challenging time and don't hesitate to reach out to our office for resources; we are here to support the community.
Food Bank
Stores large quantities of food and distributes to member agencies, like food pantries, soup kitchens, meal programs, senior centers, etc. Food banks store and distribute food to other organizations. As an individual, you cannot get food for yourself or your family from a food bank, but you can donate/volunteer.
Food Pantry
Provides food packages directly to people who do not have enough food to eat, generally in quantities large enough for a few days or a week.
Soup Kitchen
Serves people who walk in and are in need of a meal.
