How you help | With your help, together we can make a difference and all play a role to end hunger in our community. You can take the first step by Getting Involved with the Dedham Food Pantry. |
---|
About us | Established in 1990 in the basement of St. John’s Methodist Church, the food pantry currently serves approximately 160 Dedham families each month. Approximately one-half of those served are children. The types of food distributed to our clients include a variety of non-perishable pantry staples; perishable items such as frozen meat, eggs, cheese and bread; and fresh seasonal produce when available. We obtain the food from a variety of sources including purchasing from the Greater Boston Food Bank; receiving donated food from individual, community or corporate food drives; purchasing from warehouse and thrift stores; receiving donated food from grocery stores; and receiving donated produce from local farms. |
