Feeding America Mobile Food Pantry

Feeding America West Michigan is bringing a mobile food pantry to Redemption Hill Church, 332 S. Carpenter Ave. in Kingsford on the Second Wednesday of each month.

Free food will be available to all households experiencing food insecurity.

Mobile Pantries are like farmers markets on wheels that provide groceries including produce, protein, dairy, grains and more - to anyone in need at no charge.

This is a drive-thru food distribution, with food distribution beginning promptly at 10:00 a.m. and registration beginning no later than 9:00 a.m.
Registration takes place at customer vehicles. Customers should be prepared for a lengthy wait in line.

A household is eligible for the supplemental food provided by the mobile food pantry if it already receives food assistance (eg. SNAP, WIC, SSI), meets federal income guidelines, or is simply in need of emergency food. The U.S. Department of Agriculture in its February updates announced that it had adjusted the income ceiling for supplemental food programs to 300% of the Federal Poverty Line, meaning that even more families and individuals will qualify to receive free groceries.

Volunteers working registration will be available to answer eligibility questions that customers may have. As it has been with previous mobile food pantries, no proof of eligibility will be required.

The USDA and FAWM require for each household a full name, information about household size and make-up (the number of children, seniors and veterans that reside in the household), and eligibility.

Restrooms are available inside the church.

Questions regarding the mobile food pantry or volunteering should be directed to The Mac’s Creek Foundation at (906) 822-7750 or themacscreekfoundation@gmail.com.

Questions should not be directed to Redemption Hill Church.

Feeding America West Michigan is an equal opportunity provider.
