Lebanon Food Pantry was founded on September 17, 1985. Lebanon Food Pantry, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. We are a Shared
Harvest Food Bank Member and a United Way of Warren County Agency.

We operate as a collaboration of 12 local churches. We employ one part-time coordinator and rely on the generosity of dozens of community partners, hundreds of volunteers, and more than 200
financial supporters.

Donations to the Lebanon Food Pantry are gifts to our community. They provide much more than food. They give hope to our neighbors. Lebanon Food Pantry provides food assistance to individuals and families in need in Warren County, Ohio. We serve an average of 100 households weekly, offering three days of emergency food support,
including non-perishable goods, fresh fruit and vegetables, frozen meat, personal hygiene items, and other household necessities. We encourage families to visit once per month for as long as they need assistance.

In 2023, the need for assistance increased by 64 percent. We served 15,837 people from 4,772 households. On average, a family comes 3.89
times a year for assistance. 697 families came this year for the first time. Families struggling to make ends meet can reduce food expenses and save money for utilities and other bills by using the food pantry. The Lebanon Food Pantry relies on financial support and food donations from individuals, businesses, faith groups, and civic
organizations.
