Natick Service Council’s Heart Healthy Food Pantry is the most frequently-used service by our clients. It is a choice pantry and our clients are able to shop for foods they prefer and are provided with up to two weeks of nutritious foods, including fresh fruits, vegetables, low fat dairy products, lean meats and personal care items. We are able to staff the food pantry because of our wonderful volunteers - over 222 of them - who facilitate over 5,000 client visits a year. With the presence of an ever-increasing need, we anticipate serving more in the upcoming year.

As a result of the growing need, we reach out to our local community to help us stock the pantry with non-expired, non-perishable food and personal care items. Through our Food and Donor Drive initiative, neighborhoods, cival servants, church groups, youth groups, sports teams and scouts gather items to help fill the shelves throughout the year.

 

How to Donate to the Food Pantry

The Vi Tutuny Heart Healthy Food Pantry only accepts donations of non-perishable food items. We respectfully ask, on behalf of our clients, that you not to donate any open or expired items as we have to dispose of them.

The following collection bins are currently open for donations:

Stop & Shop | Natick
Natick Service Council | 2 Webster Street

The food in these collection bins is collected each week by volunteers and delivered to our Food Pantry.
