Mobile Pantry Program

Program Overview

Center for Food Action's Mobile Pantry Program brings nutritious food directly to neighbors with limited access to pantry locations.

The Mobile Pantry expands food access beyond CFA’s six pantry sites, bringing groceries closer to seniors, homebound individuals, and others who may face transportation or mobility barriers. Distributions include fresh produce, groceries, and other essentials when available.
