16th Annual Empty Bowls

The Community Food Pantry provides emergency food assistance to individuals in need in the greater Reno Sparks area. In 2024, we fed approximately 85,250 people. Volunteers are essential to the pantry and give many hours each week. The pantry depends on donations from the community and local businesses to continue to provide services. With the recent federal cuts to food banks, the need is even greater.
