Our Hunger Prevention Program consists of a soup kitchen and food pantry, open every Saturday except the first Saturday of the month from 8:30AM to 11 AM. Approximately 1,000 people or more are fed in our soup kitchen during this time. They are served eggs, potatoes, cereal, bread, fruit, juice, coffee and milk.
Guests also receive a food pantry bag, which supplies emergency and supplemental food in grocery bags.
Regular clients must register and must bring ID and proof of residence.

You can receive food by visiting the food pantry or soup kitchen when it’s open. Make sure to check each resource page to see details like address, full schedule, and requirements.
Delivery services are very limited and are reserved for senior citizens or those with serious medical problems. If you believe you fall into either category, let us know and we may be able to help you find options in Alphabet City.
Every location is different! Please review the details included on each resource to see whether you need to bring any documentation like ID or proof of address, or supplies like bags to carry the food. If you don’t see any information on the resource, you don’t have to bring anything!

We have partnered with Plentiful to provide appointments to our guests for the pantry. To schedule an appointment: Two options: Download the app here. Available for Android on the Google Play store. (Not available for iOS) Via Text Message Text the word "SAFH" to 726-879 (PANTRY) Wait for the system to text you back - this may take a few minutes. Respond to the questions that the system asks (e.g. Name, Date of Birth, Zip Code, Number of People in the Household, etc.) Select your preferred appointment date and time • If for your first time, you don't have anything, that is no problem. You will still be served, but only receive food for one person, and not your entire household. You will need to bring documentation with you next time.

We can serve any zip code once a fiscal year. To sign up for recurring appointments at our pantry, community members must be Lower East Side residents (zip code 10002 or 10009). An ID is not required but highly recommended for ease of correctly transcribing community members' names and addresses for TEFAP requirements.
We currently have a waitlist for appointments but folks are also welcome to email us at pantry@girlsclub.org to add their information to our waitlist.

Every location is different! Some places in Alphabet City 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.
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.
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 Alphabet City do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.
