Catholic Charities provides food assistance at multiple locations in the Greater Memphis area. We also have a network of partners across West Tennessee for your convenience. Our goal is to ensure that no one goes hungry.
Foodbox Locations
One way you may receive food assistance is by visiting one of our drive through mobile pantries. The pantries offer a no contact distribution from your vehicle. Please bring a copy of your ID and proof of residence (i.e., a piece of mail with your name and address) for this service. See below for drive through pantry locations and times:
