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.

Get Food

Pantry Drive Through — We have primarily switched to a drive-through car service to serve you safely. Clients without a vehicle can use our walk-up window.

Clients need to bring a picture ID (of any kind). If your address is not listed on your ID please bring a utility bill to confirm your address.

Clients are invited to come once per 30 days.

Get directions to the West Valley Food Pantry.

Donate

Food Parcels ready for clients — We need to raise $20,000 each week to purchase enough food to meet demand.

If you are able to give at this time, the best way you can support the pantry in this critical time is to make a financial contribution of any amount. Your gift ensures we have the food and supplies we need to make sure no one goes hungry. Make a donation now.

We also accept donations of food. Click here to see a list of our current needs.

Volunteer

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.
