Impact Statement

Our mission at the Roslindale Food Pantry strives to address food insecurity in our community through compassionate action. Our impact and reach are expansive and our programs are continually growing.

Every Tuesday, a dedicated volunteer team provides pantry staples, ready-made meals, produce, meat, and other essential goods to 50 to 85 senior clients living in residential housing. On the second and fourth Saturdays of each month, we open our doors to families and individuals. On these days, we work with the community and our volunteers to provide food to anywhere between 60 to 100 families and individuals, translating to approximately 240 to 400 families each month. This impactful outreach is a testament to the power of collective action in addressing hunger and fostering a stronger, more connected community.

We extend our gratitude to the remarkable volunteers who drive these programs forward. Their selfless contributions are vital to keeping our Food Pantry running!

We provide approximately 50 to 70 pounds of food to 500 to 700 senior citizens, families, and individuals each month. Through our programs, we are able to provide nutritious and culturally appropriate foods to a large percentage of our community, all of whom are experiencing food insecurity.

The Roslindale Congregational Church, UCC is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, and the Food Pantry operates under the church’s non-profit status and is one of the central missions of the church.
