Food Pantry
Individuals and families residing within the designated area served by the Community Missions Food Pantry are able to secure bags of food provided by this program monthly. Emergency food can also be provided on a one-time basis (see note below.)
Sources of food for this program include the Food Bank of Western New York, the Emergency Food & Shelter Program, Food Drives by local churches, organizations and businesses, and donations of non-perishable food items from individuals. We also gladly accept donations of fresh produce from grocery stores, farms, and gardeners.
Last year, the Food Pantry program provided over 178,000 meals to our Niagara neighbors.
Please note: Emergency food distribution is provided at any time on a one-time basis. Individuals will be asked to pre-register for a regular distribution from the Food Pantry (or referred to the correct pantry if they live outside of our designated FeedMore WNY service area). Proof of income, and identification will be requested when you pre-register.
