The Neighbor's Place Food Pantry serving the Wausua, WI United WayNeighbors' Place Food Pantry


More than 300 families visit our food pantry every week. We stock non-perishable items, such as canned and boxed foods, and staples like flour and sugar. We are the local distribution point for government surplus foods. Depending on the season, we sometimes have venison available.

Food pantry hours are:

* 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday
* 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Wednesday

Families are eligible to visit the food pantry once every three weeks.

How to Organize a Food Drive
The Neighbors' Place depends heavily on the generosity of area organizations and businesses which conduct food drives on our behalf. To organize a food drive, contact The Neighbors' Place at (715) 845-1966, or e-mail our director Tom Rau at .

You will need to:

* Publicize the drive within your group
* Inform participants of the kinds of foods needed
* Provide a collection point

The Neighbors' Place can pick up the food if necessary.
