One of the many ministries of the New Progressive Missionary Baptist Church, our food pantry serves clients in the 60620 zip code as well as the Princeton Park/Lowden Home area surrounding the Church. Our food pantry operates under the umbrella of the Greater Chicago Food Depository which operates under the umbrella of Feeding America. We serve our clients supplemental groceries in order to offse
t the financial burden a family may be experiencing. We understand that in difficult times we may have many things to worry about but food shouldn't be one of them. Each week we open our doors and give our clients one very full bag of dry groceries and a plethora of fresh fruits, vegetables, bakery items, meat and baby/toddler food to choose from. The bag of dry goods has essentials necessary to sustain a family such as pasta, peanut butter and jelly, rice, canned vegetables, cereal (cold and hot), macaroni and cheese meals, canned fruit, prepared meals, soups, stews, among many other items. We could have anything from market fresh corn, sweet potatoes, onions, watermelons and other fruits to pastries, cakes, and bread. Groceries are given on a first come first serve basis and clients only need to fill out a brief intake form and show identification showing that they reside within our parameters.
