Food Pantries

For over 50 years, Catholic Charities has helped the hungry in our area, serving over 700,000 meals a year to 50,000 people. In these difficult times, the working poor, the homeless, and our immigrant populations need our help more than ever before.

Applying For Help

You may apply for and get immediate food assistance on site at either food pantry during normal operating hours.


Donations

Catholic Charities provides the largest single independent pantry in Broome County and serves approximately 3600 people per month. In addition, Catholic Charities works with five parishes in Western Broome to serve an additional 500 people per month. About 45% of those served are children.

Thanks to the generosity of people in Greater Binghamton and their pledges to Harvest for Hunger, the hungry will be fed. We need your help to continue this important mission.

March and April are special months for our pantries.
Catholic Charities Food Pantry participates each year in the Feinstein challenge
(www.feinsteinfoundation.org) held during those two months.
Every donation that you make during this period will automatically be eligible for matching funds from the Feinstein Foundation.

For more information please contact Kathy Pfaffenbach at 723-4563.
