 Food assistance is available at SnowCap's pantry every weekday. 

To visit the pantry, you will need to bring proof of address (POA) that is dated within the last 30 days.  Usually, this is a utility bill or other postmarked mail received by the person at the address they list on their application.  Please bring your own bags or boxes.
