Food pickup locations (depots) - Our depots are located in borrowed spaces, and each building may have their own requirements. We ask that you come prepared to wear a mask and respect their individual policies.
Anyone feeling ill or at risk is encouraged to give the IDs for their household to someone else who can collect food for them. That person must be prepared to show their ID as well*
All clients are asked to bring recycled or reusable bags to our depots to help pack food items.
