Wakefield Interfaith Food Pantry

Founded in 1982, the Wakefield Interfaith Food Pantry is a not-for-profit, volunteer organization with a mission to provide emergency food supplies to Wakefield residents who need a helping hand. We are one source of food for our clients and utilize referrals to complementary organizations for supplementary food and services. We are guided by our belief that sometimes a helping hand is all you need to get back on your feet, and we hold the highest respect for our clients' privacy, dignity and confidentiality. If you are a Wakefield resident and are in need of food, for either a short or long period of time, you can receive assistance from the Wakefield Interfaith Food Pantry. The Food Pantry stocks non-perishable and perishable food items. Twice a month, clients are eligible to receive a 3-4 day supply of groceries. Since the Wakefield Interfaith Food Pantry is considered only one source of a client's food needs our staff refers clients to complementary agencies for supplemental food and services. Please know that we are here for our neighbors in need! For those that need help our hours are Tuesday 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m., Thursday 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m., Thursday 6:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.
