The food bank at Al Fair is a registered 501c3 and a registered affiliate of Gleaners Food Bank. We are also certified by the State of Indiana for food handling safety. We typically distribute food and toiletries (e.g., toothpaste, sanitary napkins, shampoo, bars of soap, laundry detergent, dish soap, toilet paper, diapers) to our community on the third Sunday of every month from 10:30 AM – noon. If we had more funding, we would distribute more. We typically serve about 400 people at every distribution. We have been in operation since May 2011 – so we are now in our 6th year. Our community is in GREAT NEED and we always need more donations.
Each distribution requires about 20 volunteers on the day of the distribution and numerous behind the scenes volunteers on other days.
To donate to the pantry, people can do the following:
1. write a check to the IMCA Food Pantry and give it to me to deposit into the food pantry account.
2. show up to the pantry on a day of the distribution and bring food and/or toiletries.
3. drop off donations to the masjid office M-F 9-5
4. contact Sr. Belz at jbelz@iupui.edu to make arrangements for a donation.
