Newton Food Pantry

The Newton Food Pantry is an independent nonprofit currently serving over 1,800 Newton residents. Founded in 1983, the Newton Food Pantry is the oldest and largest food pantry in the city and receives no direct city or other government funding. Food insecurity has increased exponentially during this crisis and the pantry has seen a dramatic increase in those requesting support as well as a greater need from their current clients.
