About the Westchester Food Pantry

Westchester Food Pantry serves as a resource throughout the year for those who are hungry and food insecure. Supported by the generous donation and work of our community - individuals, organizations, and businesses - we are able to supplement food needs in our village and seven neighboring communities. Our doors are open twice a week to help our neighbors in need. Through our Wet Nose Pantry, we are able to offer food and other supplies to our clients' pets so the whole family can stay together. The Westchester Food Pantry is 100% volunteer run and is entirely dependent on donations to keep our doors open.

Details and updates on all programming may be found on its website at westchesterfoodpantry.org or follow it on Facebook or Instagram.
