FOOD PANTRIES

The Center for Family Services, Inc. operates seven food pantries to serve Crawford County residents. The Pantries are funded through the State Food Purchase Program (SFPP) and The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP).

Program Guidelines

Households must utilize the food pantry designated for their zip code area, unless an arrangement is made with a CFS staff member.
The Center Food Pantries provide one supplemental food box per month per household.
Supplemental Food box eligibility is determined on a self declaration of need based on the current 185% of Poverty guidelines.
Additional Emergency Food Boxes are distributed on a case by case basis.

Testimonials

We love hearing from our Community

To the Center for Family Services for providing assistance. The department has treated me with the upmost respect and understanding of being low income residence of Meadville. Thank you Center for Family Services for helping me rebuild my foundation to secure a home - and thank you for boots for work!

I don’t know if you remember me. My name is Sarah Swartz. My friend, Jess and I met with you because I was homeless with my 3 children last year. I was running out of hope and could not find any help until we met with you. You were kind enough to look up my credit report and suggested I call Stephanie Turner with Elevation Mortgage. After that I called Stephanie Turner and found a realtor, Samantha Blount. After 6 months of living on a porch in a tent and then in a camper we finally made it to a house located at 798 Market Street in Meadville. I want to thank you. It doesn’t feel like enough just to say thank you. Homelessness was a situation I never thought I would find myself in because Ive always worked and have always been careful with the money I make. After looking for help everywhere I could think of, searching for a home and having everything lead to absolutlely nothing, I was feeling pretty defeated and ready to give up. You gave me the first step I needed and the hope I needed to get back on my feet. Thank you so very much!
