Food, Meals & Grocery Support

Have questions about where to find food? Looking to sign up for SNAP or WIC? We've got you covered!
  • Where is the closest pantry or food distribution?

    The Food Bank network is made up of more than 700 pantries, meal sites, no-cost markets, and delivery programs — and everyone is welcome! Just enter your zip code or county on our FoodFinder app to find locations near you.

  • I live outside your service area. Where can I find support?

    The Food Bank is active in 34 counties across central and eastern portions of the state. But no matter where you live in the Carolinas, there are hunger relief organizations that serves your community. Check out Feeding the Carolinas to find locations near you.

  • Are there documentation requirements to receive food?

    At the Food Bank, we believe that no one should go hungry — no matter where we live, where we’re from, or the color of our skin. 

    Our partner pantries, no-cost markets, and meal sites are open to everyone. Beyond specific federal programs like The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), we do not ask for documentation; only general household size and income levels. 

    Food Bank pop-up markets do not require any documentation; just come as you are and shop for what you need!

     

  • What is SNAP grocery support? How do I apply?

    The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (sometimes called SNAP, FNS, or food stamps) is a lifeline for more than 1.4 million people across North Carolina. With SNAP, you can receive monthly support to help pay for groceries. 

    Our team is here to help you access the support you need — and all consultations are 100% confidential. Learn more about SNAP and how to apply here.
