Open Hands Food Pantry

Open Hands Food Pantry Hunger is real in the Metro Detroit area. The Open Hands Food Pantry was founded in 1982 in a small closet to provide food for neighbors in need.

Open Hands is a community-based, non-profit food pantry and garden that provides food & personal hygiene assistance while elevating the dignity of our neighbors in the metro area. In 2021 we served nearly 19,000 people with food and other necessities. Through the generosity of our all-volunteer staff, Open Hands during the COVID pandemic distributes food as a drive-through every Saturday. The pant

ry is located at the southeast corner of 11 Mile and Woodward in Royal Oak. Open Hands is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and has expanded to include the Open Hands Garden to provide fresh produce to food pantry clients. For more information: www.openhandspantry.org.

Moved by concerns over SNAP cuts, owners David Landis and Carl Jones rallied their clients—and the response was incredible: nearly 70 cases of food in just two months! 🥫🙌

We’re so grateful for their generosity and for a community that shows up. 🫶🍽️
