Ulster County food pantries.
Dozens of food pantries operate in Ulster County. The centers will try to provide a box of either canned or fresh groceries to last for a few days. If a resident of the county needs immediate assistance, then soup kitchens are run by charities and they can offer a free, hot meal, such as a lunch or dinner.
The services available from the food banks are generally free, however some organizations may require either a small donation or sell discounted groceries. Another benefit to using a non-profit pantry is that the centers will try to offer more than just a bag of food. They will try to provide basic needs such as clothing, hygiene items, and seasonal support such as Thanksgiving and/or Christmas meals.
Ulster County families from all backgrounds turn to a food pantry for help. They will not discriminate based on age, race or religion. In fact, many applicants are senior citizens or families with children that need some affordable food to make it through a crisis.
