The St. Thomas Food Pantry provides food to residents of Peoria Heights (zip code 61616). Persons who live in other zip codes are served by other food pantries in the area.
Our pantry is generally open on Mondays and Thursday, 9 am to 11 am. The Pantry is closed on holidays and when the Parish Office is closed.
Volunteers are always welcome and help dispense food and lift grocery bags for clients. Volunteers need to arrive by 8:45 am to prepare for food distribution. Volunteers also assist, when needed, to pick up food for the pantry.
Our pantry is funded by St. Thomas Parish collections from the First Sunday of the month, as well as through contributions to the St. Vincent de Paul Society.
If you are interested and available to help this vital work for our Parish, in the local community, please call or email Diana Janda at sdjanda1@comcast.net.
