Neighbors Helping Neighbors

Since 2009, Heights Interfaith Ministries Food Pantry has worked in our community to reduce food insecurity. The Pantry serves families across Houston and distributes pantry staples, fresh produce, eggs, basic toiletries and more on Thursdays from 4 to 6 PM and Saturdays from 10 AM to 12 PM. We are 100% funded by donations, volunteer-run, and guided and supported by several Houston Heights area churches.

Our Mission

To respectfully nourish our neighbors in need with food and resources
to help improve their lives

As an agency of the Houston Food Bank, we receive pantry staples, fresh produce, milk and other items at below market prices. We also connect with corporate and non-profit partners who donate bread, prepared meals, meat, and specialty items. Together, we work to provide reliable, nutritious food at no cost to our neighbors in need. We help put food on the tables of those living on fixed and low incomes as well as individuals dealing with career or health crises. A monthly trip to the Pantry is a helping hand to those facing financial and other challenges. From the start, we have worked to:

• Provide generous, nutritious food to all who seek help
• Distribute fresh produce grown in community gardens
• Partner with individuals and organizations to better serve our clients
