The Portage Township Food Pantry is a non-profit organization, supported by area churches, businesses, community members, and organizations, operated by a group of volunteers who provide food assistance to qualifying families in need. This assistance of charitable donations to needy people shall exclusively qualify it for the purp

ose set forth under section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Portage Township Food Pantry provides food assistance to Portage Township residents every month. to 12 p.m. on the first, second, and fourth Thursdays of the month. The third Thursday we are open in the afternoon from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. When a month has five Thursdays then we are normally closed on that fifth Thursday unless specifically stated otherwise. We utilize volunteers to purchase and pick up commodities at the region's food bank and local retailers, to organize and stock shelves, to work community events, to collect food donations, and to operate the food pantry. Financial donations are the backbone of the food pantry. With your monetary donation, the food pantry can stretch each dollar further by purchasing in bulk or large quantities, allowing for more purchases and providing more for the clients. The Portage Township Food Pantry members are careful and trustworthy stewards of your monetary donations. With little overhead costs, over 90% of monetary donations received are used to purchase food which is given right back out into the Portage Township community. Besides direct financial contributions, several local community groups and businesses host fundraising events on behalf of the food pantry, donating the events proceeds to the food pantry. Please consider helping the Portage Township Food Pantry in any way and/or amount that you can.
