Description:

What is a Mobile Food Pantry?  Free perishable food for those in need.

The Second Harvest Gleaners Food Bank of West Michigan has more surplus perishable food available than it is able to distribute through the Food Pantry System.  The solution? Let's put a pantry on wheels!

Used beverage trucks are donated, refurbished and filled with pallets of food--5,000 to 10,000 pounds per load.  The food is then delivered to Brookside on a specified day. Volunteers unload it and within minutes the food is in the hands of the people who need it.
