The Pantry has changed so much in the last few years and is bursting at the seams. Unfortunately, our numbers continue to grow as we now service over 300 families a week! We never turn anyone away.  Food insecurity is a widespread problem even in towns like Acton, Boxborough and our neighbors. We continue to operate with a barebone paid staff of 3 (all part-time) and a host of valued, dedicated volunteers. We are so grateful to supporters like you, who keep our programs running despite the increased demand for food.   

 
The Chef Challenge is a volunteer-run event, all proceeds support AFP programs. Your participation helps AFP to alleviate food insecurity and to provide access to food with care, dignity, and respect. Thank you!
