Did you know that 80% of the food in our pantry comes from food donations? Every can, box, bag, and fresh item donated by our neighbors helps keep our shelves stocked and ensures that families in our community have access to nutritious food when they need it.
When you donate food, you are doing more than filling a pantry shelf—you are putting a meal on a neighbor’s table. Your generosity helps us stretch our resources, serve more families, and respond to the growing need for food assistance in our community.
Whether you donate a few items or a car load, your contribution matters. Together, our community can make sure no neighbor has to face an empty pantry.
Give Food. Feed a Neighbor. Strengthen Our Community.

Bring your community together and help fill our pantry!
Hosting a food drive is an easy and meaningful way to support James Island Outreach. Gather your church, school, workplace, neighborhood, civic group, or friends and collect much-needed food for our neighbors.
