How Ordering Works

Each household is eligible for one monthly distribution.

Once registered, all you have to do is log in on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday that you’re eligible to customize your order for that month and lock in your cart.

How Pickup Works

After registering, you’ll select a pick-up window. Be sure you’re available during the window and have appropriate transportation for over 80 pounds of healthy food!

If you are unable to come in, you’ll need to sign a form called a “Proxy” that gives permission for someone else to pick up your food.

Click here to access the Proxy form

Haga clic aquí para acceder al formulario de proxy

If you are a caregiver for someone who needs food and cannot physically come in to our sites, please print out the Proxy form, have the food recipient sign it, and bring it into the Pantry with you.

Am I Eligible?

Our online portal is easy to use and easy to access. Check out if you’re eligible to take advantage of our free services:

  • Your income is at or below the government’s guidelines.
  • You have access to cooking and refrigeration facilities in your home.
  • You live anywhere in the city of Chicago — there are no service boundaries for our Online Market program.

 

Our Partners

We’re proud to partner with several community organizations, schools and faith-based groups to provide opportunities for our neighbors to pick up healthy groceries at other locations.
