- Description: The StreetLight Food Pantry served approximately 2,000 households in 2014. This equated to 21,000 food pantries. While operating under other names the food pantry has been providing groceries since July of 1997. We assist guests in accessing food stamps, food pantries and meals from other resources. Presently, the StreetLight Food Pantry distributes an average of 890 nutritious Lunch/snack bags each month. For many people this is the only food they will have for the day. For the past 10 years we have provided a light dinner on Sunday evenings. These meals are prepared by various groups once a month. This year, we have already served more than 16,000 meals.
