Our highest priority during this challenging time is to protect the health of our shoppers and volunteers, and to remain a resource for those in our community who need food. We are open every Wednesday from 1:30-5:30PM. We are coordinating closely with the Newton Department of Health & Human Services, our inventory partners, and sharing “best practices” with other food pantries and food organizations. If you need assistance, please contact us at newtonfoodpantry@gmail.com or 617-796-1233 or Project Bread’s FoodSource Hotline at 1-800-645-8333 (M-F from 8am-7pm & Saturday from 10am-2pm.)
Dial ‘211’ if you have an emergency need for food or other assistance.
In 2020, we saw a 63% increase in the number of bags distributed to our clients. Since COVID, we have distributed 25,270 bags.
