In Matthews, NC, the Food Pantry - Charlotte, part of Catholic Charities, is dedicated to providing essential food assistance to individuals and families in need. With a focus on dignity and respect, our client-choice model allows patrons to personally select their groceries from a variety of available items, ensuring that their nutritional needs are met in a compassionate manner. Open on a first-come, first-served basis during operating hours, our pantry relies on the generous support of volunteers to help stock and distribute emergency food weekly. New clients can easily join our program by completing a simple, one-page application that gathers essential demographic information. To best serve our community, we respectfully limit assistance to once a month per household, meeting urgent needs while fostering a supportive environment for all.
