✞ HOPE Food Pantry & HOPE Community Kitchen

HOPE FOOD PANTRY and HOPE COMMUNITY KITCHEN

HOPE is the largest direct service emergency food provider in all of Westchester County. HOPE’s food services include the Community Kitchen which serves dinner three evenings a week, 52 weeks a year, and the Food Pantry which distributes bagged groceries every other Wednesday (549,477 meals provided in a typical year). HOPE provides comprehensive social services, English classes, and offers a special summer day camp. HOPE’s services are provided by a small staff (2 full-time and 6 part-time employees) and an extraordinarily dedicated group of some 300+ volunteers, without whom HOPE could not function.

Every week, parishioners bring food items for the Hope Food Pantry
and deposit them in the baskets at the doors of the church.
After each Mass, volunteers are needed to bring these items to the Sacristy.

CAN YOU HELP US? Please bring nonperishable DRY GOODS to any Mass. Suggestions: tea, soup, cereal, jelly, peanut butter, canned stew, rice, powdered milk, tuna, pasta, tomato sauce, beans and hash. We also need shampoo, soap, and toiletry items, brown bags and plastic grocery bags in which to put food for distribution.
PLEASE DO NOT DONATE FOOD AFTER THE “USE BEFORE” DATE.
