Who We Are
The DuPage Township Food Pantry was established by the Township Board of Trustees to support Township residents experiencing food insecurity and to ensure families, seniors, and individuals have access to nutritious food in a welcoming and respectful environment.
What began as a small pantry serving approximately 60 families each month has grown into a vital community resource serving more than 12,000 families monthly.
The pantry is made possible through the support of the Township, our partnership with Northern Illinois Food Bank, and generous donations from local grocery stores, businesses, schools, churches, civic organizations, and community food drives.
Our Mission
Our mission is to fight hunger in the DuPage Township community with compassion, dignity, and respect.
We understand that access to nutritious food is an important part of overall health and well-being. Our goal is to create a supportive space where every guest feels welcomed, valued, and cared for. As we continue to grow, the needs of local families and seniors remain at the heart of everything we do.
