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!​

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 community 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.
