2025 by the Numbers
Hunger is a problem that affects those in all communities, sometimes those you expect the least. The Westchester Food Pantry serves as a resource throughout the year for those who are hungry and food insecure.
For the nine month period ended September 30, 2025, the Pantry served 4,269 client households, or nearly 12,900 individuals. For the same period last year, the Pantry served 4,132 client households.
Each client leaves the Pantry with $375 worth of food in their grocery cart. In addition, 50% of our clients have pets for which we supply them with pet food.
Get Food
Free groceries, household supplies, and pet food are available for those in need once a month at the Pantry.
Donate
We are supported by the generous donations of residents and businesses within our community. Your donations directly keep food on the tables of families in need.

We are blessed to have so many volunteers assist the Pantry. Explore our volunteer opportunities to see how you or your organization can help.
