Our food distribution center, also known as Mom’s Pantry, was built on the bedrock of a single goal: that no man, woman, or child go hungry. It was created because there is a significant need in our community to help families with their struggle against hunger. In Arizona, one in five families does not have the ability to provide enough food to feed the entire household. Our founders and donors have been blessed with food on their table and believe that no individual should ever have to go hungry. Through the collaboration and generosity of a local family and interested parties, the vision and mission to combat hunger brought Mom’s Pantry to life. Mom’s Pantry is always stocked and ready for the next visitor.
Mom’s Pantry accepts donations of both food and money to help them meet their goals. Unless otherwise designated, all donated funds are used to purchase food and hygiene items for distribution to our guests. Facility and administrative costs are separately funded. Additionally, as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, Mom’s Pantry will provide a tax receipt upon request for all monetary donations.
Volunteer opportunities include, but are not limited to, stocking shelves, distributing food, registering guests, and coordinating food drives. Volunteers are the heart of Mom’s Pantry, so if you’re ready, willing, and able, we have just the right job for you! Even more so, Mom’s Pantry always needs donations of food to provide the best help possible for those in need. Hosting a food drive is a fun way to help those in need across the Valley. Why not host a food drive at your work, church, school, or in your community?
