About Us

2021 Annual Report
The mission of the Hilliard Food Pantry is simple - improve the well-being of our community by providing food and support. Founded over 57 years ago, it has been funded entirely from contributions of individuals, businesses and organizations.

History of the Hilliard Food Pantry

The organization formed in 1960 and incorporated in 1963. The original name was the Hilliard Community Welfare Council.  Support came entirely from contributions from individuals and organizations, door to door solicitation, and fundraisers.  The major fundraiser of the time was an annual skating party. For many years the pantry was housed in what used to be the "Old Jail" in Downtown Hilliard.

About the Pantry

The Hilliard Food Pantry is operated by the Hilliard Community Assistance Council (HCAC), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. It is managed by a volunteer board of not more than eleven members. There are two full-time employees for the pantry.

In 2021, the Hilliard Food Pantry saw 10,312 visits from families in our community. Families are eligible to receive a 5 day supply of food twice a month.

Where does the food come from?

The majority of the food we receive comes from Mid-Ohio Food Collective or one of its sources.  Donations secured are used to purchase food for pennies per pound through the foodbank. 

We pick up fresh produce, frozen meat, bakery, and other donations from Aldi, GFS, Meijer, Giant Eagle, Target and Kroger.  These grocery stores are doing their best to limit waste and provide support for our community.

We also accept non-perishable food, hygiene items, and garden produce from individuals or food drives.
