The South Benton Food Pantry is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving the South Benton County community.

Located in Monroe, Oregon, the buildings include three spaces: the South Benton Food Pantry itself, which provides emergency food and resources to those in need; the Kepi Nak Nak Commons, a versatile room and kitchen used for various events and community meals; and Heritage Hall, a former church sanctuary for social events.

The South Benton Food Pantry strives to combat food insecurity, connect residents with support services, and foster a stronger sense of community in South Benton County.

FOOD PANTRY SNACK PACK PROGRAM

For many children, the weekend can be a time of fun and relaxation. But for some, it can also mean facing food insecurity. That’s where the SNACK PACK PROGRAM steps in, providing a vital lifeline to students at Monroe Grade School.

Since 2021, the Snack Pack program has been quietly working to ensure that children at Monroe Grade School have access to food over the weekend.

“Rising food costs have made this one of our more expensive programs,” explains Janeece Cook, SBFP Executive Director. “But we know how important it is to address weekend hunger, and we’re committed to continuing this vital service.”

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

We’re gearing up for the year, serving our community with delicious meals, and we need YOUR help to make it happen! Whether you’re a seasoned volunteer or looking to get involved for the first time, we’d love for you to join us.
