Food Pantries in/near Hyde Park

[Denyel Fonseca]

Good morning all,

As we are approaching Thanksgiving and our office will be doing turkey donations on November 17th, I wanted to provide links for a list of pantries in the area of Hyde Park. Our numbers are limited this year (do not have an exact amount at the moment). I will do my best to accommodate everyone's request from churches, organizations and individual families but please look at the link below as this may be a helpful resource as well!

Good morning,

The YMCA reached capacity for the number of turkeys they have available to give away. As our office has a limited number this year and we do not have the amount we will have available for each neighborhood yet, please encourage residents to reach out and check the links on local food pantries in the area. Also if any organizations/groups are doing Thanksgiving dinners for the neighborhood please let me know so I can also connect residents to you as an additional resource.

Best,

Denyel

Good morning all,

I will hopefully have a number on how many turkeys I will be able to provide and reach out to families and orgs that have reached out. I wanted to share this link for the Greater Boston Food bank. For those who need assistance in finding a local place, please check the food finder here.

Best,

Good afternoon everyone,

The Neighborhood Food Action Collaborative (NFAC) has a weekly free food pop-up every Friday from 12pm-1pm at the Hassan Elderly/Disabled Housing (705 River St) in the community room. All are welcome (no id or proofs needed)!

NFAC manages a Food Resource Guide and updates it every week. The list provides up to date information on where you can access food in Hyde Park, Roslindale, Mattapan, Dorchester, and Roxbury. 

Additionally, NFAC runs four free food distribution programs in Hyde Park & Roslindale every week where food is distributed but they are lacking storage space. They often get food distributed throughout the week and need space to store it. If anyone knows of a place who would be willing to donate space to to them that would be refrigerated or even a small room or large closet space please let me know. You can also touch base with Sarah Primeau who is the Director of Programs for Health Leads Boston by contacting her at: 978-807-6707, spri...@healthleadsusa.org.

Best,

Denyel
