What will I receive in my food box?

All boxes are made the same for each household depending on what our nonprofit receives in donations for the week. Food boxes will have a mix of non-perishables, perishables, bread, etc.

*Donation amounts and variety differ week to week.

Does your nonprofit accept donations? How can I donate to you?

Our pantry relies heavily on donations to keep us running. Items that we are always needing are non-perishables, fresh fruit & vegetables, hygiene products, used grocery bags, and clean boxes.

There are a couple of ways to donate to us:

  1. You can DM/ email us neighborhoodkithencollective@gmail.com or text “DONATION” at 314-827-6732 us and we can schedule a good time to coordinate a donation pickup/ drop off to our location.
