The Brookfield Food Pantry provides an emergency supply of food for residents in need. The pantry is open Tuesday mornings from 9:30 - 11:30a.m, the 3rd Thursday evening of every month and other times by appointment for those who work or are in school and cannot come at the specified hours. Eligibility for the Food Pantry is determined by an intake at the Social Service office, where workers will ask the resident to verify their identity and residency, income, assets and financial situation.
We gratefully accept donations of nonperishable food items and household supplies. We can always use grocery store gift cards. Financial donations are also gratefully accepted - checks should be made payable to Brookfield Social Services Emergency Fund and a notation made "Food Pantry".
