THE FAMILY PANTRY
A pantry that cares.
We can't wait to meet you!
The Family Pantry team provides emergency food assistance to community neighbors in need! We are determined to provide a safe avenue for our neighbors to get help with the basics. We are a choice pantry, which means you pick the food you get. Our goal is to support your family and we are here for you!
​
Our pantry service area includes Madison Township, Groveport-Madison School District households, and those in the 43232, 43125 & 43110 zip codes. Service area exceptions include families who are members and/or regular attenders of Fellowship Baptist Church.
CREATE YOUR BOOKING ONLINE
The online booking waitlist is a new way to secure your spot at the pantry!
Due to the number of families we have utilizing the pantry, we have limited our weekly capacity to 45 families. To reserve a spot, neighbors can now request a booking appointment by visiting the link above.
​
30 spaces are available online for booking requests. These requests will be reviewed to ensure all necessary information is on file and that neighbors are within our service area. Neighbors will be added to the waitlist on the day of service and served in the order they reserved their booking. Priority will be given to first-time guests and those who require special assistance. Neighbors can now only book one time per month to allow space for others.
​
For those who miss the cutoff for booking ahead of time, we will maintain the ability for walk-ins when the doors open at 5:30 PM. We will receive only 15 walk-ins each pantry service night.
