About St. Johns Food Pantry

St Johns' Food Pantry helps feed over 800 familes in Manhattan, from 14th Street to 96th Street. Every Wednesday, rain or shine, unpaid volunteers distribute food to large families, small families,elderly persons and single adults. Food bags are carefully balanced to provide a minimum of three days' nourishment to each person served. This, in most cases, is the difference in having enough to eat or going to bed hungry. No food bags would mean a serious shortfall, especially for children. St. John's food Pantry distributes free clothing and diapers. St. John's Food Pantry also has a full time Social Worker to serve our clients' needs and help them become independent.

 

The Food Pantry is able to accomplish this through the hard work and dedication of its volunteers, who take pleasure in helping those who are less fortunate than most of us. The volunteers actively solicit funds, unload trucks, sort and bag food, maintain inventory records, register and cheerfully serve families, in a caring and loving atmosphere so that those served never feel demeaned, to resort to the Food Pantry for most of their food needs.
