About Our Food Pantry

Our Food Pantry is an emergency food assistance program. Reaching out specifically to De Pere residents, the mission of De Pere Christian Outreach's Food Pantry is in keeping with the Bible's command to feed the hungry and serve others.

The Food Pantry had long since operated within St. Anne's Episcopal Church long before the vision of a permanent building was completed. In 2012, a new structure was built on the grounds of St. Anne's Church.  To accommodate the ever growing needs of our community, the refrigeration capability was upgraded in 2016. In 2017, to better meet the needs of servicing  our clients, the Food Pantry began the addition of an enclosure to accommodate a new, much larger freezer/cooler, space for fresh produce and a private consultation area.
