The Open Link’s Community Food Pantry is designed to provide food to local families who do not currently have the financial means to meet their nutritional needs. There are two types of assistance through the food pantry: emergency food provided through community food donations and the government food program. Eligibility varies by program.
In addition to food, our pantry is able to provide local families in need with other basic necessities such as infant formula, diapers, toiletries, cleaning supplies, and paper products (when available). Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Vouchers are also available at The Open Link to seniors who meet the income guidelines (while supplies last).
Approximately 182 food orders are distributed each month to local families in need. Income-eligible families are able to access the food pantry once a month; exceptions can be made based on a family’s need and current situation.
