YNFP is proud and grateful to have been selected (three times now!) by Stop & Shop for a program to get more Rhode Islanders involved in the fight against hunger.

During April, $1 will go toward funding our food pantry whenever someone buys a bouquet at the Stop & Shop at 1128 Mineral Spring Ave. in North Providence. Please do!

Please join us for an Open House to celebrate YNFP's First Anniversary! The event will take place on Saturday, May 18, from 2-4pm in our pantry at 533 Branch Ave. in Providence.

As a special treat, watch chefs from T's Restaurant (a Rhode Island institution!) create delicious tapas using pantry ingredients and sample the results! 

To RSVP and pay the $40 donation to attend, please click here, where you'll also find more details on the event.

Please check out this video recapping YNFP's first year as Providence's newest food pantry, and read these reflections on 2023 from board chairperson Larry Shushansky.

Since we opened in May, we've served hundreds of households and thousands of family members with tens of thousands of pounds of food from the RI Food Bank and other key partners. 

Thanks to all who've come through our doors, joined in our cause and stayed in our hearts.
