Calvary Food Pantry CNY Our mission is to meet emergency food needs of residents of our designated area of Auburn and to advocate for the alleviation of hunger in Cayuga County.

Who are we? The Calvary Food Pantry, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, just celebrated its 25th year. Our purposes are to meet the emergency food needs of residents of Auburn and the surrounding areas, to advocate for the alleviation of hunger in Cayuga County and to support and encourage individuals in ways that empower them to address root causes of hunger. What do we do? We provide sufficient food to feed each family member 3 nutritionally balanced meals per day for 5 days. From July 2011 through June 2012 we served a total of 3,219 households with 10,935 individuals for a total of 164,025 meals – a total that has risen 25% over a 2-year period. CNY Food Bank reorganized Auburn geographically by street in order to better equalize all food pantries. From July 2016 through June 2017 we served a total of 1,519 households with 4,019 individuals for a total of 60,255 meals. How do we do it? Through our affiliation with the CNY Food Bank, we purchase food for an average price of 19 cents per pound. Food purchases and operating expenses are funded through grants, donations and fundraisers. How can you help? You can make a tax deductible donation by credit card, or send it by mail to Calvary Food Pantry, 90 Franklin Street, Auburn, NY 13021. Donations of non-perishable food items can be brought to the pantry during business hours (Monday and Wednesday 10-5 and Fridays 10-2). Interested in a rewarding volunteer opportunity? Volunteers are always needed to staff the food pantry, to help unload food deliveries and tend the garden. Fill out our online volunteer form or contact Nancy at 252-7772 for more information. Your support of various fundraisers such as the Soup and Sandwich Luncheon, and the Harvest Dinner is greatly appreciated. Look for announcements of our spring and fall rummage sales and other events which help fund our efforts. You are what make us possible! Nancy Sheffield, Executive Director
