About This Pantry
The Pilsen Food Pantry was founded by the Figueroa Wu Family Foundation in 2018. The pantry is an extension of the Foundation’s mission to bring anti-poverty services into areas of unmet need through the lens of health justice. The pantry has twelve employees and is supported by many volunteers. It distributes culturally-sensitive perishable and non-perishable foods as well as personal and household items.
