About Us

The Interfaith Emergency Food Pantry of Pleasantville is affiliated with faith-based congregations and civic organizations in the community. It has been in operation since 1986 and began as a place where neighbors could help their neighbors in need.

Volunteers help set up the shopping shelves and tables, assist clients with food selection, and restock the Pantry shelves at closing. The Pantry is open for distribution on alternate Thursdays 1:00-3:15.

What will I get?

Each household receives enough food for several meals: two bags – one with perishable items like fresh fruits and vegetables, meat, fish, eggs, and dairy, and a second bag with nonperishable food such as canned fruits and vegetables, pb&j, pasta, rice, and beans. We will do our best to fulfill specific dietary needs, such as low sodium and low sugar/sugar-free items. At Thanksgiving and Christmas, we offer a complete meal that our clients can cook at home, such as turkey, chicken, ham, traditional sides, and holiday desserts.
