The HopeLine’s food pantry is a distribution model that provides our guests with the ability to take control of what food they take home.

Providing Healthy Food Choices

Our hybrid model now offers choice options with prepackaged groceries, including fresh vegetables and fruits, grains, dairy, and protein. We provide an average of 5 to 10 pounds of meat and fish as well as other items like cooking oil, juice, bread, and special meals/snacks.

Expectant Moms

We invite you to make an appointment to receive food and a one-time welcome package of newborn diapers for your expectant baby. Note: You must provide a sonogram or official doctor’s note as one-time proof.
