The key ingredient to reducing poverty

Alleviating hunger and food insecurity in our community

Fixed Food Pantries

Our five fixed pantries allow clients to receive food at a location that is convenient, safe, and clean. Some locations include “client-choice” options allowing direct selection of specific foods.

Mobile Community Pantries

Our five mobile community pantries travel to over 90 mobile pantry sites through the nine counties of the Diocese of Dallas to bring fresh food to those in need.

Who is eligible?

  • Families receiving government benefits such as SNAP, TANF, SSI, NSLP, Medicare and Medicaid. NO PROOF IS REQUIRED.
  • Families who fall under the Federal Poverty Guidelines become eligible to receive food services. NO PROOF IS REQUIRED.
  • Families facing a temporary crisis due to natural disasters and homelessness automatically become eligible to receive services.
