School Pantry Program
Our School Pantry Program provides free, wholesome food in a location that’s comfortable and convenient for kids and their families. These pantries are operated by school staff who know their school’s students and can help anticipate needs. Many students will take food home to feed younger siblings, parents and even grandparents.
You can find a pantry in your child’s school district below. Or, learn how you can support a school pantry in your community.
