About The Pantry
The Community Pantry, inspected by Public Health, serves as a valuable resource for individuals in the Camrose area. It's important to note that while the aim is to provide food and essential hygiene items, it is not a traditional food bank. The mission is to offer supplemental assistance and support to community members.
Pantry items are dependent on donations including those through Second Harvest, a food rescue organization that is working to keep food where it belongs, on plates and out of landfills.
