The West Suburban Community Pantry (WSCP) offers food for the hungry and resources to empower people to improve their quality of life.
Serving over 5,600 individuals each month, WSCP is integral to helping our low-income neighbors in DuPage and Will Counties receive the nutrition they need to lead full lives. We work to break down barriers to food assistance, implement new services to best help people in our community, encourage volunteerism, and educate our donor base about existing needs.
After finding and fostering families and individuals who need care, we can also refer resources to ease and eliminate the circumstances that led customers to seek emergency aid.
Together, we can realize our vision of a community without hunger.
