Current appeal
Fill the winter
pantry before
the first frost
Every November the shelves empty faster than we can fill them. $18,400 stocks the pantry from December to March — rice, beans, oil, canned fish, diapers and soap for 420 households a week.

About us
Fifteen years of
neighbors helping
neighbors
Kinfold began in 2011 as a Thursday soup table in the back of the old library on Orchard Lane. Today 1,260 volunteers run a pantry, a kitchen, a van and a visiting scheme — and nobody who asks for help is asked why.
What we do
Three ways we show up
Food & pantry
A free pantry open five days a week, and parcels delivered to anyone who can’t make it to us.
Hot meals
Lunch every weekday and supper on Fridays, cooked by volunteers. Everyone eats at the same table.
Visits & company
Weekly visits, calls and small jobs for neighbors who live alone, so nobody goes a week without a knock at the door.

Become a volunteer
Two hours a week is enough. Pack parcels, drive the van, cook on Fridays or sit with someone over coffee — we train you and pair you with someone who has done it before.
