Westchester Food Pantry

THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH!   WE REACHED OUR GOAL.

THIS IS TRULY VERY HUMBLING, BUT YET SO AWESOME!

HAPPY NEW YEAR AND STAY SAFE.

For over 25 years, the Westchester Food Pantry has provided food for our neighbors in need.  But never has the demand for assistance been greater than in 2020.  Since March, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a 70% increase in the number of clients served.  Through the tenacity of our volunteers and the generosity of our community, we've been able to stay open and meet this surge of demand on the Pantry.

While the Westchester Food Pantry has weathered this crisis, another crisis of another great proportion happened.  We will be losing our home.  With the Westchester Village Hall moving to a new location in early 2021, we needed to find a new home. 

Searching since the beginning of July, we finally found a great building for sale, at a nice, affordable price.  It is the building located at 1938 S. Mannheim Road in Westchester.  After a lengthy uphill battle, we finally closed on this property on November 24.   In order to make building repairs, and the necessary building enhancements for it to be volunteer/client friendly, plus buying additional equipment to operate as a food pantry, it is essential for us to meet our Go Fund Me goal.  

Can you help?  Please help!  By making a tax-deductible donation, you can ensure that the Pantry can continue the valuable work of feeding our neighbors in need, in a building that meets our basic needs.

For over 25 years, we have been here for our neighbors in need.  Now more than ever before, we need our neighbors to be here for us.  Please help us to continue our mission, and allow to serve our community, especially during this very trying times.

Together, we do make a difference!

As the holidays approach and winter months lay ahead, the Westchester Food Pantry anticipates an increase in the numbers of clients we serve, as well as their needs.  Realtors for a Cause allows you to reach out to your clients and spheres of influence and raise much needed funds for the pantry, as well as raise awareness as to how vital the Westchester Food Pantry is to our local communities and helping our neighbors in need.   Thank You!

As the holidays approach and winter months lay ahead, we anticipate an increase in the numbers of clients we serve, as well as their needs.  By reaching out to your own clients and spheres of influence, you have the ability to educate everyone about how the Westchester Food Pantry serves our local communities and why its existence is so vital to our neighbors in need who experience food insecurity.
