Emergency Food Pantry Services

Emergency Food Pantry Services (FPS) in Gardner, MA, is dedicated to alleviating hunger and empowering residents through accessible food assistance. Operating through two pantry locations in Worcester, we provide emergency food provisions that not only nourish but also foster self-reliance. Our compassionate team conducts initial assessments to identify additional CENTRO services that may support our clients' needs, ensuring they receive comprehensive care. Beyond distributing nutritious food, we offer valuable referrals to community programs and help clients navigate the resources available to them. Our mission is fueled by the support of local initiatives, including the City of Worcester’s Community Development Block Grant, Project Bread, and the Worcester County Food Bank, all aimed at enhancing the well-being of our community.
