food pantry

Gladstone Community Center has provided a new, convenient location for drop-off, if you’d like to donate nonperishable food to the Gladstone School Food Pantry’s new location at Kraxberger Middle School.

Donations are accepted from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday-Friday dropped off at 1050 Portland Ave., Gladstone. If you have a large amount of donations or items that are cold or frozen, please contact food pantry manager Alex Van Pelt 503-737-5283 to arrange a special drop off.

Our food pantry is generally open year-round from 3-5:30 p.m. on Wednesdays at 17777 Webster Road. Thanksgiving week we will distribute on Tuesday, Nov. 25, instead of Wednesday. Same hours: 3-5:30 p.m. We will be closed Dec. 22-Jan. 2.

During the school year, school district families have priority shopping to shop first at 3 p.m. and must be able to show proof of enrollment every time they shop during these early-bird shopping times.

The pantry serves families with students in the Gladstone School District. We also serve other residents of Gladstone and surrounding areas.

For more information on pantry shopping and volunteering, please contact the Pantry Coordinator Alex Van Pelt at 503-737-5283 or via email.

Cash donations welcome; you can donate here.

Checks can be mailed to Gladstone Education Foundation at 17789 Webster Road, Gladstone, OR 97027. Be sure to indicate Gladstone Food Pantry on the memo line.
