The Cedar Hill Food Pantry, now under the umbrella of Cedar Hill Shares, has been helping alleviate hunger in our community since 1989. The Pantry has emerged as a lifeline to a growing number of residents in Cedar Hill and stands as a beacon of hope for the hungry and the needy. The Food Pantry relies solely on contributions, volunteers and donors to deliver much needed assistance. Today the Pantry's reach extends beyond food distribution and includes assistance with TXU energy aid, emergency fuel cards and other vital resources. The Pantry also serves as a hub for Meals on Wheels for our community.
Cedar Hill Shares is a community-wide effort to end hunger in our city. We provide food and other assistance to our neighbors in need. Our efforts are focused on the Cedar Hill community or those living within the Cedar Hill ISD boundaries.
The Cedar Hill Shares Food Pantry is in need of support to continue stocking shelves and providing for those in most need during these trying times. We have a continuing need to stock our shelves with items so that our clients can enjoy their shopping experience. During each visit made to to the pantry, families receive nearly 50lbs of non-perishable items, fresh produce, meats, dairy products and bakery goods. Now more than ever, families in Cedar Hill are counting on us to fill in gaps that sustain them during challenging times. In addition, due to overwhelming support and needs of the community, we are outgrowing our current 1800sq ft. facility. We have also began to supplement after school programs within 75104! We would love to continue to service our community in these ways and even more!
