About the Brainerd Community Food Pantry

Housed in the building of Brainerd United Methodist Church, The Brainerd Community Food Pantry is a community effort. We are different faith communities, organizations, schools, businesses, and individuals coming together with the goal of serving people who need help, especially as it pertains to food insecurity. We would love for you to be a part. If you are interested, please send an email to brainerdfoodpantry@gmail.com.
