Our Mobile Pantry Program helps to increase access to healthy, nutritious groceries in under-resourced neighborhoods through collaboration with community-based organizations. Mobile Pantry guests can pick up their Pantry packages conveniently at more than 69 partner sites in Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens.
The program reduces food insecurity in the community by engaging families that do not have access to free food through traditional channels like food pantries and other resources by bringing food closer to where families live and removes barriers such as transportation costs. The Mobile Pantry program does not offer home delivery services to individuals.
We offer three options for agencies looking to partner with Mobile Pantry.
Partnership
For CBOs (non-individuals) who would like to partner with NY Common Pantry.
Event Distribution
For CBOs (non-individuals) requesting support for a community event.
Zeus Distribution
For community organizations and elected officials who would like to host a Zeus distribution.
For all requests, a Mobile Pantry 30-minute meeting must be scheduled as no request is confirmed until they have spoken with the Mobile Pantry management team for review.
