Our Food Pantry Services
Our service is unique because we serve not only those who come to shop at our pantry and the Free Food Market, but we also have established mini-pantries at three area elementary schools. These mini-pantries are free to children who have no food resources on the weekends.
Equal access and equitable treatment
We offer high protein, nutrient-dense free food choices through a shopping-style food pantry on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday each week 10 am-1 pm. A Free Food Market on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month. Sign in at 4 pm and the doors open at 4:30 pm- until all the food is gone. We also have three elementary in-school pantry programs for students who need food on the weekends.
School Pantries
3 (Madras Elementary, Buff Elementary, and Metolius Elementary) Each School Identifies at-risk children with no food at home. We provide food for them to take home from school on the weekends. The school distributes the food to the kids once accepted.
