Welcome to Food for Others
We need the following to serve you:
1. A photo ID. You must show a photo ID every time you come to get food.
2. Current Address. If your ID does not show your current address, you must also bring an official document as proof of address such as a utility bill, rental agreement, car title, letter from your child’s school, bank statement, etc. You may also call the DMV and they will give you a change of address card free of charge.
Warehouse Distribution Programs
US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Progam
- You may qualify for the USDA food program, which is distributed once a month. The box includes a small quantity of canned or dried goods (usually between 5 and 10 items) which is meant to supplement other food sources. It is not a full month’s supply of food.
- We cannot exchange any of the items you receive in the USDA box, but you may return anything you cannot use.
- Whether you are eligible to receive food depends on your household income level.
- You must fill out an application the first time you visit. Everyone will be asked to re-apply once per year.
- Note: The application requests information that is provided to Fairfax County, so they may determine future community needs.
- Food expiration dates refer to food quality, not food safety. An expired product is safe to eat beyond its expiration date
Emergency Food Program
- You must contact a County Social Worker to receive a referral. If you live in Fairfax County you should call Fairfax Coordinated Services at 703-222-0880. Other social service agencies are listed on page 3 of this form.
- The social worker will send us a referral if you qualify.
- Once received, you should pick up the food right away; we will not keep a referral for more than two weeks.
- Each referral represents 1 visit. If you are in need of emergency food at a later date, you must get another referral.
- All households will be limited to 8 referrals per calendar year.
Visit our Neighborhood Sites
- Our volunteers will be distributing supplemental food at various neighborhood locations at specific dates/ times. You may go to these sites as often as you need. Please bring your own bags/boxes to collect the food items.
- You do not need ID; we only ask that you answer one question: “How many people are you feeding in your household?”
- You must be there at the time listed to get food – we only distribute for a short period of time.
- Our volunteers will distribute the food as evenly as possible to anyone who is waiting.
