A large poster with three men in suits and four gold stars is behind them. They are holding a check, and part of an aisle with products is visible in the background.

Our Purpose

Serving Clay County Since 1989

For over three decades, The Food Pantry of Green Cove Springs has provided emergency food to families and individuals in need throughout Clay County. Our shelves are stocked through generous food drives hosted by local organizations, and our mission is sustained by donations from foundations, businesses, and caring individuals in our community.

We are a 100% volunteer-run organization—with no paid staff and over 90 dedicated volunteers—ensuring that every dollar goes directly toward feeding the hungry and making a difference where it matters most.

  • The Mission of the Food Pantry is to provie emergency food for the working poor and to act as a stop gap in times of crisis for people in need.
