Our
Services
We are dedicated to addressing food insecurity in Merced. We distribute food boxes, perishable items, and bagged lunches through partner agencies throughout the year.
Food Box Distribution
Twice a month* we distribute over 300 food boxes to households in need. On the second and fourth Thursdays*, families can pick up one box per household, complete with dry goods, produce, dairy items, bread, desserts and drinks. See our distribution schedule.
​*November/December have one distribution day due to holidays.
Perishable Item Pick Up
We regularly receive perishable items that need to be distributed between our food box distribution days. We have perishable item pick up every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, with the exception of the Fridays after our food box distribution dates (see schedule).
Caring for the Unhoused
We also provide lunches to our unhoused community members through our partner, Merced County Rescue Mission, serving this vulnerable population. We deliver brown bag lunches weekly on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
