We Can Help.
Really.
Whether it’s your first time visiting a food pantry, or you’ve had SNAP for years, everyone can use a little guidance.
Food Pantries
A food pantry is a place that distributes free grocery items. They can be run by churches, nonprofits, or volunteer groups, and they all operate differently. We can help you find the best options near you! With thousands of locations in our database, finding free food in your area is easy. Read more about visiting a pantry for the first time here.
Soup Kitchens
Maybe you don’t need groceries–that’s okay too! There are plenty of places to get a free, hot meal, whether it’s a church around the corner, or a neighborhood volunteer. Some locations offer sit-down meals while others offer grab & go service, but they’ll often provide you with more than one meal when you visit. Ready-to-eat meals are waiting for you!
Government Benefits
The government safety net is designed to support you in times like these. There are tons of public benefits to help with groceries, rent & utilities, baby items, and more. For example, 42 million Americans use SNAP benefits: a monthly allowance you can use to buy groceries, just like any debit card. Learn more about applying for SNAP here.
