Food Pantry & Market

You shouldn’t have to choose between food and rent

What We Offer for Food Assistance

Fresh groceries, pantry staples, and support—so you can focus on what matters.

Our food pantry in Monument, CO is open to anyone experiencing need. Every neighbor is welcome to shop at our Market after completing a simple intake process that helps us understand how to best serve you.

Once enrolled, you can visit once per week to choose from a wide variety of groceries—fresh produce, proteins, pantry staples, toiletries, and household essentials—all provided with dignity and respect, just like any grocery store.

If you’re new or haven’t completed your intake yet, our team can still provide an emergency bag of food so you have immediate support while you get started.

We also offer additional programs like snack packs for students and seasonal holiday meals to help families thrive year-round.

Pantry/Market Hours

Our Market in Monument, CO is designed to feel like a grocery store—grab a cart, bring your own bags, and choose the foods that work best for your family.

If you’re visiting for the first time and haven’t enrolled yet, you can stop by and still receive an emergency bag of groceries to meet your immediate needs.

To shop regularly and select your own groceries each week, please complete our simple enrollment form so we can get to know you and serve you better.
