Food Security & Nutrition Assistance

Food Pantry: Nourishing Our Community

The Jubilee Park Food Pantry, opened in February 2023, works to increase food security by ensuring every family in our community has access to nutritious food and essential household items. From fresh produce, meat, and dairy to pantry staples, household products, and pet food, our Food Pantry offers vital resources that help families thrive.

How the Jubilee Park Food Pantry Works

The Food Pantry is available to all registered Jubilee Park residents. Residents must register in advance to qualify for the service. Appointments are required and food distribution occurs every Wednesday and Saturday (varies between third and fourth Saturday of month). Families can pick up fresh produce, groceries, and other essential items during these designated times.

Food pantry Distribution Dates

There are often items needed that we cannot access through our weekly deliveries. See below for a “wish list” of items that are always needed and a great reason to host a food drive at your school or organization! We appreciate you!

For questions or to coordinate delivery, please contact Ashli Robertson, Development Manager, at arobertson@jubileecenter.org or 214.887.1364 x 251.
