Member Spotlight: Greencastle Antrim Food Pantry
The Greencastle Antrim Food Pantry exists to improve the health and wellbeing of those in our community by providing access to food, nutrition and other related resources. Beginning in 1984, this pantry has been serving those in need for forty years! While there have been many changes over the past four decades, having people in the greater Greencastle-Antrim community affected by food insecurity
has not. We currently serve an average of 140 families per month.
The Greencastle Antrim Food Pantry operates solely by volunteers. Donations must be checked for current dates and stocked on the shelves. Bags need to be packed for clients and carried to their cars during our hours of operation. We are open the first Thursday of every month from 6 to 8 p.m. and the second and third Wednesdays from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
The Greencastle Antrim Food Pantry is recognized by the state and therefore has some food provided through South Central Community Action Program (SCCAP). However, as a non-profit, we rely heavily on food contributions and cash donations to purchase food. Our efforts alone could not sustain this outreach. We have been blessed by various community partners helping us achieve our mission and are continually humbled by the generosity of our community. Click here to learn more.
