As hunger and poverty in Oregon continue to rise, we maintain a pantry at our main offices and at our various housing sites so nourishment is never far away. Those who have food are in a better position to change their lives.
Nourishing the bodies, minds, and spirits of our community
Catholic Charities food pantries provide food access for Catholic Charities clients experiencing food insecurity including refugees, immigrants, older adults, and families who live in Catholic Charities’ low-income housing properties. These pantries include non-perishable food items such as canned fruits and vegetables, dried and canned beans, pasta, cereal, peanut butter, and condiments along with frozen meats. The pantries also stock perishables including fresh produce, bread and dairy when available.
If you are experiencing food insecurity, please consider the following resources:

For every dollar you spend on SNAP-eligible foods, you get an extra dollar for fresh produce. Visit the link to DUFB website, blog to learn more and find participating locations through Food Finder.
