• We are a food pantry that distributes fresh fruits and vegetables, household cleaning items, personal hygiene items, and canned/boxed foods. Based on donations from local businesses, we also try to distribute milk and cheese, baked goods, meats, and ready-made meals.

**We give out food and cleaning items every Sunday from 1 to 3 pm, rain or shine. If pantry guests arrive at 2 pm, the line is shorter and there still is plenty of food. We are open on holidays.

• For people who are unable to visit the pantry in person due to disability, we deliver groceries to homes during weekends. This depends on how many volunteer drivers we have.

• We are located behind the building at 4340 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington, DC. We are a block north of the Van Ness Metro station on the Red line on the west side.

Operated through a partnership between the DC Department of Parks and Recreation and the Office of the State Superintendent of Education, this site hosts the seasonal DC Youth Meals Program, an open-access summer feeding site serving free, ready-to-eat breakfast and lunch meals on-site to local youth when school is out. Hunger doesn't take a summer break, and these meals help children and teens get the nutrition they need to learn, play, and grow during the months when National School Lunch and School Breakfast meals are not universally available. The program is funded by the US Department of Agriculture's Summer Food Service Program, and the site is hosted inside the 4-story Columbia Heights Community Center, one of DPR's larger neighborhood recreation facilities.
