Here we offer the free choice of fresh fruits and vegetables, meats and clothing to over 1000 people per month. During holidays we help as many families as possible with baskets of food and gifts.

Hunger Task Forces Closures & Emergency Food
Hunger Task Force continues to plan for and accommodate food pantry and program closures and decreased access to emergency food as a result of health and environmental impact events. Hunger Task Force has created a list of confirmed, trusted sites that continue to provide food safely and reliably.
The map below lists public senior Stockbox sites, school meal sites and outdoor emergency food distribution sites in Milwaukee. Search by zip code in the upper left hand corner to see a list of all the sites in your area. Then, click on individual sites to see details: days and times of service, type of program, etc.
This resource is updated daily. Check with your local community food pantry directly for hours of operation.
The Belonging Place Garden has been harvested, and the beds are now put to rest for our long winter. We’re looking forward to a wonderful planting season next year. If you want to be involved in the spring planning, please stop by and leave your contact information. Your participation is always welcome! Helping Community welcomes donated produce from local gardens and farmers. If you have produce to share, please contact us through our Facebook page Helping Community Food Pantry or send an email to helpingcommunity3295@gmail.com.
Thank you.
