Open Arms Food Pantry

Open Arms Food Pantry, located in Hempstead, NY, is dedicated to serving our local community by providing essential food assistance to families in need. We understand the challenges that many face and aim to create a supportive environment where each individual is treated with dignity and respect. At our pantry, clients can personally select their food items each month with the help of our caring volunteers, ensuring that everyone feels like a valued member of our community. To maintain a personal connection, we conduct a yearly interview for those we serve, allowing us to offer not only emergency food but also referrals to additional resources. Operating on the 1st and 3rd Saturday of each month from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., we are committed to being more than just a food pantry; we strive to be a compassionate support system for those in Hempstead facing food insecurity.
