Get the food you deserve.

We make it respectfully simple.

Proof of residency *

There’s no income verification. No proof of need. We only ask that you provide proof of residency within our 15-village region. And you do that once, on your first visit here. See the map of our service region for the villages we serve.

You will receive an ID card with a barcode. You can then use the card here and at any food pantry supported by the Greater Chicago Food Depository.  

* Veterans: You are welcome here, regardless of your residency location.

* Homeless Neighbors: You are also welcome here, without a residency requirement.
