    Info

    The food is distributed from the building across the parking lot from the church and that is connected to the St. Francis International School building. People enter/exit the doors directly under the big blue sign that reads: 1500 St. Camillus Drive.

    Everyone gets a food pantry card that allows them to receive every 4 weeks.

    Newcomers are registered and given a card the first time they come. All recipients must be registered.

    Clients must be at least 18 years of age and can show us some form of personal ID (driver's license, passport, home country ID... ) something with their name and date of birth.

    Each time they come, they need to bring ID and Pantry card which gets scanned and the distribution recorded in our system.

    There can only be 1 card per family, so husband and wife cannot each have a card, for example.

  15. Do I need an appointment?

    Every location is different! Some places in Franklin Knolls accept appointments, some require it, and others allow walk-ins. Please review all details on the resource page to understand how you should prepare for your visit.

  16. What kind of food do they have?

    Food pantries offer grocery-style items such as canned food, fresh produce, and dry goods like pasta or rice that you can cook yourself. Soup kitchens offer ready-to-eat items like hot meals or sandwiches. All of these locations may have different options on different days, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  17. Do they have vegetables?

    Pantries may have different options at different times, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day. Most pantries in Franklin Knolls do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.

  18. Do they have meat?

    Pantries may have different options on different days, so it’s hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  19. Any pantries open today?

    If you’ve signed up for personalized assistance through our text message helpline, please take a look at the links we’ve sent you!

  21. Can I get a reminder before my visit?

    Yes! Tap the bell icon on any resource page to set a reminder via text or WhatsApp before it opens, so you don’t forget your visit.

  22. Can I build a weekly food schedule?

    Yes — you can use Lemontree to build a calendar of upcoming pantry visits in Franklin Knolls for the week, so you always know where to go and when. It’s a great way to plan ahead and make sure you have food throughout the week.
