We started our large monthly drive-thru food pantries at the start of the pandemic to help meet the urgent food needs of thousands of people in our community.

We will continue hosting these monthly distributions through December 2022 and will move to large quarterly distributions in 2023.

Have no fear though! The Food Bank of Delaware is out in the community every day helping to serve Delawareans! There are many ways to continue getting the help you need without having to use fuel to travel to the distribution or coming at a time that may not be convenient for you!

Just a few ways we can help you close to home on a regular basis:

• Have food delivered directly to your home through our Home Delivery Program
• Visit one of our small community mobile pantries
• Visit one of our Food Bank partner pantries or our on-site Healthy Pantry Center in Newark or Milford
