Committed to Alleviating Hunger

Collaborating with volunteers from 12 churches across St. Johns County, the St. Johns Ecumenical Ministries Food Pantry is a steadfast provider of emergency food assistance to individuals and families. What began as a grassroots initiative driven by a shared commitment to alleviating hunger has evolved into a vital community resource.

Collaborating to Fill Shelves with Fresh Produce

The pantry sources much of its food from two key partners: the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), which supplies government-funded provisions, and Feeding Northeast Florida, a Jacksonville-based organization dedicated to combating hunger in the region. These partnerships allow the pantry to consistently stock its shelves with essential items, including fresh produce, canned goods, and other staples.

Elgibility

To qualify for assistance, individuals must be residents of St. Johns County, provide their household size, and participate in an interview to determine eligibility.
