Are you in need of fresh produce, nonperishable food, or a hot meal?
Do you know someone experiencing unemployment or hunger as a result of the Coronavirus crisis?
The Northwest Food Partners Network Food Resources Guide is a record of all food pantries, free hot meal sites, and produce mobile locations in the neighborhoods we serve. We encourage you to view the guide, download it, print it out, and share it with anyone who might find it useful.
Before going to an organization’s food pantry or hot meal site, please call them to check that they’re still open!
