ABOUT THE WEST LINN FOOD PANTRY
West Linn Food Pantry is a 501(c)3 charitable, non-profit that provides food boxes for families in the West Linn area. Located inside the Willamette United Methodist Church in West Linn, local families have utilized this community-operated service since January 2007. The pantry doors are always open to those who are hungry.
In 2024, 2,453 families consisting of 4,957 adults and 2,055 children were served by the Pantry. In addition, the Pantry provided 109 families with Holiday Food Boxes and gifts for 130 children.
Thank you for all the community support. All of us working together make a huge difference in building a stronger community.
HOW TO GET HELP
Once a week, a family may obtain a food box from the West Linn Food Pantry containing a 3-5 day supply of food. Monthly, over 180 families receive a weekly food box.
Bread, produce and pastries are available weekly. We provide food for approximately 3-5 days, based on the number of people in the home, as well as personal care products, as available.
Home deliveries can be arranged for seniors and individuals who are homebound. Deliveries are made on the 3rd Thursday of each month for those who are homebound.

Home Plate Program
In the Spring of 2016 the West Linn Food Pantry partnered with Willamette Primary School for a weekend “backpack” type program that we call Home Plate. This program provides a brown bag filled with nutritious food to help children get through the weekend who might otherwise go without. This program has been very successful and has recently expanded to include all primary schools in West Linn.
