FOOD PANTRY

The Food Pantry is our most visible program.  All food and clothing we distribute to our neighbors in need comes from donations by individuals, community food drives, and local businesses.  The pantry supplies over 900 bags of groceries a month!


Each neighbor may visit the pantry twice a month and choose the food and clothing they need.  Each shopper selects food items based on their personal preference.  Some items in high demand have limits to ensure everyone gets at least one a month. 

HOW YOU CAN HELP

ATTENTION SENIORS:  Share is now open the first and third Thursday of every month for senior clients (55 years of age and older), 9:30-11:00 am.  Transportation is provided for Lewinsville and Fallstead retirement residence clients.

SHOP FOR SHARE

 

  • Donations can be brought to the McLean Baptist Church on Wednesday and Saturdays from 9:30 AM - 12 noon.   Donations can be placed in the storage bins on the left side of the Church at any time.  Our volunteers empty the sheds daily.

 

  • Want to shop for Share, but don’t have time to drop off items?  Purchase Share’s most needed items through My Registry and leave the delivery to us!    Deliveries are sent directly to a safe location where they are loaded into a Share food truck.

 

  • The Redeemer Lutheran Church 1545 Chain Bridge Dr, McLean, Va., accepts non-perishable food and personal hygiene items on Monday-Friday 9 am to 3 pm.  Come to the office and ring the doorbell. (Westmoreland side of the church, not the front doors and not the playground side).   They cannot accept clothing, toys or household items.  

Did you know?  During the summer months, food supply is particularly low due to fewer food drives being held by volunteers. Also our families need more food in the summer as their kids are not receiving free breakfasts and lunches as they do while at school.
