GET FOOD
Hungry? Food is not far away.
We have two weekly food distributions each week and are situated locally in the central part of Keene.
The boxes contain staples such as breads, shelf-stable groceries, protein, fresh vegetables and dairy when possible.
In addition, we offer hot meals every weeknight.
Click the link above or contact us at (603) 352-3200 for more information. All are welcome at our distribution sites and your privacy is protected.
Take-home supplemental food boxes are available once a week on either day.
Wednesdays drive-thru 12:30pm-5:30pm
Thursdays walk-thru from 11:30am-4pm
Mon-Fri 5pm – 6:20pm
Donate Money
Your monetary donations help purchase food, pay staff, fuel trucks, and keep the lights on – distributing food to those who need it. For every $1 received, we’re able to provide about $3 worth of healthy food.
Donate Time
Your donation of time is critical to ending hunger in our community. We rely on the generous support of volunteers, which would otherwise require the work of 15 full-time staff members.
Donate Food
Your food donations help keep our shelves stocked with staple groceries for distribution to our neighbors facing food insecurity. Collected food is some of the best we offer our guests.
HUNGER HAPPENS
Many individuals within the community face the difficult choice of prioritizing a meal over other vital necessities like medication, utility payments, or childcare.
Every meal should be a simple joy, not a source of stress or anxiety. At The Community Kitchen, we believe that everyone deserves access to nourishing food that fuels their bodies and souls. By fostering a supportive environment and connecting individuals with resources, we aim to remove the barriers that make food choices feel daunting. Together, we can create a community where hunger becomes a thing of the past and delicious, wholesome options are within everyone’s reach.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provides eligible individuals and households with benefits to buy nutritional and healthy food items at grocery stores and other participating food retailers. You may qualify for SNAP benefits depending on your household size, income, expenses and resources. Click the button below.
