Corpus Christi Food Pantry - Food Distribution Center
Who Can Visit?
The Corpus Christi Food Pantry is open to anyone who lives within the boundaries of the three parishes in the Blessed Trinity Family: Corpus Christi, St. John Neumann, and St. John the Baptist. You are welcome here no matter your background — volunteers are here to help with kindness and respect.
Items Needed for Registration
At each visit, please bring one of the following:
- A current Ohio Driver's License or non-Driver Photo ID, or
- A utility bill dated within the last 30 days
How Often You Can Visit?
Guests are welcome to come back for regular monthly visits. In addition, guests can take part in special annual projects that provide food for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners.
Food & Essentials
The pantry provides a wide variety of food and non-food items. Donations come from generous parishioners, former pantry guests, and local merchants — including Meijer, Target, Kroger, Aldi, Starbucks, and Cheddars. Along with groceries, guests can also pick up toiletries, cleaning products, and paper products.
How to Pick Up
When you visit, friendly volunteers will be there to help you choose the food and supplies you need. Many volunteers are on hand to guide guests through selecting their items in a warm and welcoming way.
Additional Support
If you have needs beyond food, pantry volunteers can share contact information for local resources — such as St. Vincent de Paul — that may be able to help.
Ways to Give
The pantry gladly accepts non-perishable food donations every week. You can drop off items in the container marked "Food Pantry" in the gathering spaces at Corpus Christi, St. John Neumann, or St. John the Baptist. You can also bring donations directly to the Corpus Christi Parish Office during normal business hours.
Please note: clothing and household items are not accepted at the food pantry drop-off — those should go in the St. Vincent de Paul bin in the parking lot.
You can give online to Corpus Christi Church at https://www.wesharegiving.org/app/giving/WeShare-2423.
