StoneBridge Food Pantry
Feeding the hungry, body and soul.
The SB Food Pantry exists to honor God and provide food and basic needs to people struggling with poverty in Montgomery County. SB Food Pantry reaches out in love through compassionate volunteers to those in need.
In Montgomery County, TX, it is estimated that 11.7% of its population has limited consistent access to adequate food. Of this number, only 57% are eligible for assistance programs such as SNAP, WIC, or free lunch programs. The SB Food Pantry endeavors to fill this gap. (Source: Feeding America Website 2021 data)
Since the SB Food Pantry opened their doors on August 28, 2009, they have served over 50,000 clients. Last year alone, the SB Food Pantry served over 11,000 men, women and children.
SB Food Pantry endeavors to care for their clients both physically and spiritually by uniquely offering expanded assistance to their families. Besides food for their clients and their pets, SB Food Pantry also provides clothing, personal hygiene items, gas cards and more through their core programs: Food Pantry, Clothing Pantry, Thanksgiving Baskets, Christmas Angels and Backpack to School. For more information visit “Programs” on our website home page (sbfoodpantry.org)
Most importantly, the SB Food Pantry volunteers pray for and with their clients.
While each local food pantry functions independently, we realize that we share similar goals. In times of crisis, we work together for the good of the community. This was most recently obvious in our community’s amazing response to the Hurricane Harvey disaster. We worked together to ensure that the generous donations received were efficiently shared.
SB Food Pantry enjoys a supportive relationship with local food pantries and churches. All work together to identify and refer clients to appropriate community resources. Potential clients may also visit “Need Help?” on the home page menu for more details.
