"People Helping People"

In 1945 a group of Wilmington, MA citizens began a volunteer, non-profit organization to help local families in need. 

Since then, through the generosity of our community, Wilmington Community Fund, Inc. (WCF) has supported countless neighbors facing hardship.

Our motto, "People Helping People" truly captures with WCF is all about. For more than 80 years, we've proudly carried this mission forward, supporting our community and neighbors in need. 


Today, we need your help. Your donation to WCF sustains our legacy of assisting our community. Please consider giving -- 100% of your donation directly benefits Wilmington residents.

We're Here to Help

​​If you’re a Wilmington, MA resident and are in need of assistance due to food insecurity or are faced with a life-changing situation or financial economic factors, please reach out to us. The WCF offers a Food Pantry and Emergency Relief Assistance. We welcome email inquiries, which will have a faster response time. You will be contacted so an interview for assistance can be conducted. Email us at [email protected]

Food Pantry

The Food Pantry is set-up as a “drive-up" so that food is custom packed while Wilmington residents wait in their car.  Individuals are given a list of food items in which to choose their food preferences. This list will then guide the volunteers to custom pack the food that is available at that time, while accommodating family size allocations. Recipients picking up food do not need to get out of their vehicle and a volunteer will place your packaged bags of food in your vehicle. We ask that families please arrive with space in their trunk for us to load up the food. 
​

We are open on the 2nd and the 4th Wednesday of each month from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM.  See how to Register for Food Assistance.

Food Pantry Donations

Consider making monetary donations to support the Food Pantry.  These donations allow us to purchase bulk items as the need arises. Checks can be made payable to the Wilmington Community Fund and mailed to PO Box 147, Wilmington, MA 01887.  In the memo line note Food Pantry.
​
As always food items can be dropped in our bins at Market Basket and McKinnon's Supermarket, or at the Food Pantry on Saturday between 10 AM - 12 PM.  See our list of non-perishable items we are most in need of. ​Thank you for your support!​

ERA Key Realty Service’s Team Blue recently organized and hosted a Wig Party charity event at the Knights of Columbus in support of the Wilmington Community Fund’s 80th anniversary. The event raised $1,350 and collected a significant amount of nonperishable food to benefit the Wilmington Food Pantry.

The Wilmington Community Fund is deeply grateful to Team Blue and ERA Key Realty Services for their creativity, enthusiasm, and commitment to supporting local families in need. Their efforts help ensure that our community continues to thrive as we celebrate 80 years of service.
  

Thank you from WCF


On behalf of the Food Pantry and the Wilmington residents we serve, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to you----the Community----for your generous donations of food and funds. 

Each of our clients come to us with unique needs----some requiring long-term support and others in need of short-term assistance. Because of your generosity, we are able to continue providing vital help to those in need or facing food insecurity. Simply put, we could not do this without you. 

We are especially grateful for the many food drives held by com
munity groups, churches, schools, businesses, and organizations throughout the year.  These efforts make a real difference to help stock our pantry shelves. 

Thank you for choosing to share your kindness and compassion of your generosity.
