  • FOOD

    Food is always free at the Pilsen Food Pantry. Target zip codes are 60607, 60608, 60609, and 60612 area codes, but we provide services to anyone in need.

  • CLOTHES

    Children’s clothes are always free at the Clothes Closet! Two free outfits and a pair of shoes are available for those living at or below the Federal Poverty Level. Find a new outfit at the free clothing table or purchase clothes at very low thrift-shop pricing.

  • WELLNESS

    The Medical Access Closet is open Wednesday and Friday mornings. We provide mobility assistance, social support services, and a variety of health screenings throughout the year.

Together, we can do more!

There are many ways to help Pilsen Food Pantry! Volunteer on your own or with a group in the pantry or clothes closet, donate directly to the pantry to help sustain our daily operations, donate food or supplies, or donate your aluminum cans.
