Westborough Food Pantry

The Westborough Food Pantry opened in 1986 providing approximately 30 people with food. Each family was given 1 bag of groceries per week. Mostly single people or couples received the food. As of 2023, the Food Pantry provides food for over 150 Westborough families for a total of over 450 people each week; an increase of 70% just since November 2022. The amount of food each family receives is in proportion to the size of the family. We distribute an average of 5000 pounds of food each week to Westborough families in need. That’s over 130 TONS of food per year! The Food Pantry has a completely volunteer staff of over 85 men and women. It takes more than 150 hours each week to purchase food, pick up and sort donated food and check expiration dates, stock the Pantry shelves, maintain our facility, handle administrative duties and staff our food pantry store.
