Food Assistance Resources + Our Commitment
SNAP benefit cuts have made it harder for many in our community to access consistent meals. We want to make sure people have options — immediately and clearly.
Beginning November 2025 and continuing for the foreseeable future — anyone experiencing food insecurity can order one hearty item from our Sandwich or Bowl menus (including seasonal soups) — no questions asked. Just order your meal. The meal is on us.
Below you’ll find a list of local food assistance organizations — each with links to request or pick up free food, and links to donate if you’re in a position to support.
If you need food — we hope this helps you find it. If you’re able to contribute — we hope this helps you direct your support to the groups actively doing this work every day.
