Covid-19 Updates
Our mission at the West Valley Food Pantry is to ensure that No one goes away hungry. That mission
has never been more urgent than right now.
We are committed to staying open and serving our community during the Covid-19 pandemic. Our
entire operations and volunteer system has been redesigned to practice social distancing and keep
our clients, volunteers, and staff safe.
We are now serving three to four times the number of families than before Safer at Home. We
urgently need the support of our community to stop hunger from the Covid-19 crisis. Find out how you
can access our services or support the pantry to keep our doors open.

We accept unopened and unexpired food donations between the hours of 9:00 am and 1:00 pm Monday through Thursday, and Friday from 9:00 am - 11:00 am. We cannot accept food donations after these hours or on weekends. Please do not drop or leave food on the property unattended, as it will spoil and/or attract animals.

We are in urgent need of additional volunteers to serve the new influx of clients. Volunteers help bag food, set up our drive-through, unload deliveries, and distribute food to client's cars. All our volunteers and clients follow social distancing guidelines to keep everyone safe.
