Community Food Pantry

Community Food Pantry– is a program run by the Urban League of RI to help meet the basic needs of the community through the distribution of food on a bi-weekly basis to low-income families as needed. The Food is provided by the local CAPP agency and then stocked, distributed and administered by the ULRI staff and volunteers. All other food pantry sites in the State are funded, but we are presently not funded for these efforts. (Over 95 families served annually)
