Full Cart

Full Cart, a vital initiative from U.S. Hunger located in Melrose Park, IL, serves as a Virtual Food Bank committed to providing food assistance with dignity and respect for families facing food insecurity. Our program focuses on delivering nutritious food to meet the essential needs of those in our community, especially amid the ongoing challenges exacerbated by the pandemic. As demand surges and long lines at traditional food pantries become increasingly common, the Full Cart service recognizes the urgency for reliable emergency food solutions. We are dedicated to responding as swiftly as possible to ensure that our neighbors have access to the support they need, although wait times may extend to several months due to the overwhelming demand for assistance across the country. Together, we are bridging the gap to nourish families and foster resilience within our community.
