Make a Difference With Food Donations

Food Pantry Network of Licking County has been serving our community for over four decades, providing essential nutrition to thousands of families each day. As the need for food assistance continues to grow, your donations play a crucial role in supporting our neighbors facing hunger.

We always encourage monetary donations because of our increased purchasing power. However, we also accept non-perishable donations to our food bank. By contributing to our food bank, you're not just giving groceries. You're providing hope and stability to families in Licking County, OH. We accept:

• Canned chili with beans
• Soups with vegetables
• Canned or boxed entrees
• Canned fruits and vegetables
• Peanut butter
• After-school snacks
• Beans
• Juice boxes
• Personal care products

We will continue to distribute products past the recommended "use by" date as long as they continue to be safe for consumption. For a guide to determine what we accept, please review our guide below.

Your generosity makes a significant impact. Reach out to us at FPN of Licking County to learn more about how you can contribute.
