Our Mission:
Provide essential items with compassion and dignity to those in our community who are going through difficult times.
Providing the Essentials
We believe no one should go hungry. That’s why we are dedicated to providing everything a household needs. From fruits & vegetables to canned goods & dairy, and even fresh & frozen meats, our Pantry is open to you.
Building Up Our Community
In Portland and across Oregon, we know that we are better together as a community. That must include taking care of everyone. That’s where we come in, partnering with dozens of local businesses & hundreds of individuals.
Compassion & Dignity
Food insecurity is exceptionally difficult, being both physically & emotionally taxing. At POBC, our staff is here to help you and your family as friends & neighbors. We care, and we promise to make your experience a good one.
Who We Serve
POBC Pantry is available to anyone in the state of Oregon.
We distribute food and other essentials to children, seniors, families and other individuals in need.
With 26% of people in our local neighborhood living below the poverty level, there is a great need.
