Donate Time
We need your help to feed our hungry neighbors. We welcome individuals and small groups to join our volunteer team by greeting and signing in neighbors, guiding them through the building as they shop, helping to sort and pack groceries for distribution, and picking up food donations. With 170 volunteer positions each week, we have something for everyone!
Donate Food
Nearly 1/3 of the food in our Pantry comes from donations from the community. We can accept non-perishable food and personal care items during these hours:

Wednesdays: 9 AM - 7 PM
Thursday: 9 AM - 5 PM

If you can’t drop them off during our open hours, a convenient way to contribute is through our Amazon Wishlist. Simply add the items to your shopping cart and select the Pantry’s address from the list. Your donation is delivered directly to us!
Donate Money
Food is a basic need for all of us. Your gift today will make a difference for thousands of families to get fresh, healthy food whenever they need it most.

Planned Giving
Planned giving is the process of thoughtfully including a charitable gift in your estate plans. It allows you to support the Pantry while providing for your current financial needs. You are even able to designate the funds for general operating, endowment, or a specific Pantry program. Common ways to give include gifts through will or trust, gifts through retirement plans, and gifts through life insurance policies.
To learn more about your giving options or if you have already included the Worthington Resource Pantry in your estate plans, please contact our Development Director or submit your signed Confidential Bequest Intent Form.
We recommend discussing your planned giving with options with your financial or legal advisor to determine the best option for you.
Endowment Giving
Help sustain the future of the Worthington Resource Pantry for generations to come through a gift to the Endowment Fund. Endowment funds are held in perpetuity and invested for long-term growth while the interest earned on the investment is used to support the Pantry’s operations. Through this dedicated stream of income, an endowment gift ensures the stability of Pantry operations and programs.
Workplace Giving
One of the easiest ways for a company to support the Pantry is by providing employees the option to give at work through payroll deductions, matching gifts, and workplace giving campaigns. Contact your human resources, employee benefit, or community relations office to determine if your company matches employee charitable donations and double your donation today.
