Food Pantry

At the Open Pantry of Greater Lowell, we are dedicated to providing urgent food assistance to residents in the Greater Lowell area facing difficult times. We believe in offering caring support without discrimination, welcoming individuals and families from all backgrounds. Our services include nutritious food and supplemental groceries to ensure that no one goes hungry. We encourage those in need to visit us, even if some documentation is missing, so we can offer at least an emergency food order. Clients can receive a standard food order every 30 days and are also eligible for four additional emergency orders within a year. Our pantry operates with open hours on Wednesdays from 9 AM to 12 PM and 5:30 PM to 7 PM. During these challenging times, your safety is our priority; please approach the 200 Central St. entrance where you'll be greeted by our staff, and we will assist you in gathering the food you need. If you're unable to visit, you can send someone on your behalf with a note of permission, ensuring everyone has access to vital food resources.
