Did You Know?

We feed America’s hungry through a nationwide network of member food banks and engage our country in the fight to end hunger. Join the conversation on Facebook. 

30 percent of seniors who rely on our local food pantries report that they have had to choose between paying for food and paying for medical care. Seniors facing hunger are already at a higher risk of developing serious health issues. Let’s save them from having to make that choice.

Mission Statement

The Food Pantry for Woodford County strives to provide food for low income residents in emergency situations.

We help clients provide nutritious meals for their families enabling them to use precious resources for other pressing obligations such as rent, utilities, transportation, medicine and other life necessities.
