What to Expect When Attending a Mobile Pantry

FAQs about Mobile Pantries

What are Mobile Pantries?
arrow_circle_uparrow_circle_up

Mobile Pantries are large food distribution events hosted by Members of the Food Bank of Northeast Georgia that provide supplemental grocery items to neighbors in our service area. These events are set up in either “drive-thru” or “market” style—you will either drive up and wait in your vehicle for volunteers to load your groceries, or park and walk up to receive them (volunteers may also assist taking groceries back to your vehicle).

What about paperwork?
arrow_circle_uparrow_circle_up

You may be required to complete and return a TEFAP form before receiving food. This form helps us track how many neighbors we serve. Your personal information is kept confidential and will only be accessed if there’s a recall on a product you received from a Mobile Pantry, in which case someone will contact you with that alert.

Am I required to bring any documents?
arrow_circle_uparrow_circle_up

No. You should not be asked for any documentation when visiting a Mobile Pantry. If anyone requests identification or other documentation, please contact the Food Bank of Northeast Georgia at 706-354-8191.

Can I attend a Mobile Pantry if I receive SNAP benefits?
arrow_circle_uparrow_circle_up

Yes! We encourage neighbors to use any food resources they need to ensure they have enough food for themselves and their families. If you need help applying for SNAP benefits, please text “FOOD” to 74544 for assistance.

Is there anything else I should know about attending a Mobile Pantry?
arrow_circle_uparrow_circle_up

Mobile Pantries are large events serving between 50 to 600 families, so you may have to wait in line for an hour or more. We recommend taking water and any other items you may need during that wait-time and for that day’s weather conditions. Please know that the organizations hosting the events and the volunteers assisting are working hard to get your food to you and everyone else as quickly as possible—your patience is greatly appreciated.
