1

Checked, not copied

Every listing is matched to the organization's own page or an official source. If we cannot confirm it, it stays off, or it says call first.

2

Dated

Each listing shows the day we last checked it. Pantry hours change, and you should see how fresh the information is.

3

Fixed by neighbors

See something wrong, or know a place we missed? Send it in. We review every message before the page changes.

Want your county next?

We open one county at a time, starting where people ask. If you know a pantry, clinic or program in your county, send it in and we will check it.
