The Covid-19 pandemic has taken a huge toll on families and businesses across the country and Brookline has been no exception.  More of our neighbors than ever before are struggling to make ends meet as we continue to face uncertainty about daily life, health, safety and child care.  Please help us be part of the solution by donating, by volunteering, and by sharing our story.

Since the pandemic began in March 2020, the Brookline Food Pantry has:

• Served 650-700 families weekly (four times more than pre-Covid)
• Spent $94,000 on food alone for April-June 2020 (compared to $31,000 in 2019) 
• Set up a new service to deliver food to more than 130 elderly or homebound clients each week, in addition to the 650 coming in person

• For the past few months, eleven beloved Brookline restaurants have been supplying fifty ready-to-eat meals each week to clients of the Brookline Food Pantry and the Brookline Senior Center.   The restaurants are receiving full reimbursement for the meals they provide, paid for by a grant initiated by State Senator Cynthia Creem and continued by individual donations and a grant from the Brookline Community Foundation.  Our clients are thrilled by the delicious and nutritious meals.  A true "win-win." ​

Donate

As our demands increase, even a small monetary donation can be very helpful. We can purchase food at the Greater Boston Food Bank at a significantly reduced rate. Please consider supporting the Brookline Food Pantry, and perhaps doing it regularly, as we make long term plans for the ever changing needs of our community.
