Volunteer
We are completely volunteer-run by members of our community. Please consider donating your time to make Free Grocery Store possible.
Donate
FGS is completely donation funded! Contributions go entirely to supplies and expenses.
Delivery Pantry Update
Beginning in 2026, we will no longer accept grocery delivery requests.
Free Grocery Store is completely volunteer-run. We strive to make our in-person pantries accessible and schedule additional pantries when we have the resources (time and energy)
We need more volunteers to potentially restart this initiative on a regular basis!
Learn more about our in-person pantries on our “Get Food” page (En Espanol)
