We’d like to Thank EVERYONE that helped make the Utica Food Pantry’s 10th Annual Turkey Giveaway a tremendous success. Without our outstanding giving community and the wonderful and tireless volunteers that came from far and near to help distribute the food, the Utica Food Pantry would not have been able to provide turkeys and all the fixings to those in need this Thanksgiving. THANK YOU TO ALL FOR YOUR KINDNESS!
Utica Food Pantry
The Pantry serves the residents of the City of Utica who meet The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) income eligibility requirement.
Typical clients include working families trying to make ends meet, people experiencing a temporary job loss, individuals whose SNAP (food stamps) benefits have been reduced, and senior citizens. Seniors often seek help because most are on a fixed income and are impacted by higher medication and health care costs.
As a private, nonprofit organization we depend entirely on donations from individuals, corporations, foundations and other strategic partners.
Hours of Operation:
Monday, Wednesday & Thursday 11am – 1pm
The Utica Food Pantry was founded in 1982 when it incorporated as a 501(c) organization. As a private, nonprofit organization we depend entirely on donations from individuals, corporations, foundations and other strategic partners.
