Together, we are Filling Hearts and Carts

Every corner of our community has joined Dublin Food Pantry (DFP) in our work connecting people with needed food, essentials and resources – for healthy, thriving community.

We so appreciate your help especially since our service numbers remain high:

▶︎ Individuals Served in 2021

3,438 in November

(November numbers include a Holiday Meal)

1,898 in October

▶︎ Director of Operations Jim Wilson is in his 3rd year at the pantry working to make sure we have the supplies to “fill carts + hearts” for customers. Jim works with the hundreds of dedicated volunteers needed to be able to serve so many, so efficiently – throughout the ups and downs of the pandemic.

Some Frequently Asked Questions:

❓What is DFP’s service area? We serve Dublin School District (9th largest school district in Ohio) and Dublin, Ohio (the 16th largest city* in Ohio)

What is typically supplied by DFP?

At the once-a-month visit, supplies include bread, pastry, meat, dairy, bagged fresh produce, boxed food staples and personal care essentials such as soap, deodorant, toothbrushes, toothpaste. Special requests may include baby care items, pet food, and more. At check-in, customers are asked about other needs and every effort is made to provide help even if it requires collaboration with another non-profit or government agency.

Additional monthly visits provide perishable items including fresh produce, meat and bread.
