Emergency Food Assistance



CEDA Northwest’s food pantry is designed to meet the emergency needs of the community. Clients wishing to use the pantry may do so any one time during the calendar year. If an individual or a family has a recurring food need, they will meet with a program services staff member to assess their particular situation. Dependent upon family size and demonstrated need, clients will receive a given number of packaged dry food items and canned goods.

We are grateful beneficiaries of the Mount Prospect Post Office’s Annual Food Drive, church and employer-sponsored food drives and donations from individuals, grocery stores and organizations.

  • Canned fruit
  • Paper grocery bags

  • Cereal
