Hampton Roads
It is estimated that more than 25% of active-duty military families and 10% of veteran families in our area need assistance with food.
The ASYMCA Hampton Roads Food Assistance Program helps to combat this issue in the community we serve. This program helps military families worry less about food and focus on mission readiness.
The Patriot’s Pantry provides no-cost food assistance to active duty military families stationed in the Hampton Roads area who are in need of food assistance. This is a consumer choice program, meaning there are no pre-made boxes or bags–you shop for your needs. Disbursement of food is made through the honor system and not referral or documentation is required.
A military ID and check-in are required. Any information collected is held completely confidential.
This program is located at our main office and is accessible during business hours. No appointment is required.
