We have had large number of requests and it is taking up to 4-5 days for our initial contact to schedule a delivery. PLEASE NOTE: NNEMAP's Delivery Service is NOT an emergency service. Because of the number of requests received we are generally scheduling deliveries 3-4 weeks from now. Scheduling dates are subject to change based on request volume. Please note that if we cannot contact you, we will be unable to deliver to you. Deliveries are limited to two times per month. You may only receive food from NNEMAP Food Pantry once per week, no matter the method (in-person, delivery, or locker pick-up).

    Please respond to our text messages or telephone calls. The sooner you respond the quicker we can provide your delivery. You may access food from NNEMAP once per week (in-person, delivery, or lockers). NNEMAP Delivers Monday through Saturdays, generally between 11:30am and 3:30pm. We are currently using DoorDash to make some of our deliveries, and they will text you with their progress as they make a delivery to you. If you are not at your residence and have not contacted us (614-297-0533) to cancel your scheduled delivery, the box(es) will be left at your door and the delivery will be considered complete.

  5. How do I get food?

    You can receive food by visiting the food pantry or soup kitchen when it’s open. Make sure to check each resource page to see details like address, full schedule, and requirements.

    Delivery services are very limited and are reserved for senior citizens or those with serious medical problems. If you believe you fall into either category, let us know and we may be able to help you find options in American Addition.

  7. What do I have to bring?

    Every location is different! Please review the details included on each resource to see whether you need to bring any documentation like ID or proof of address, or supplies like bags to carry the food. If you don’t see any information on the resource, you don’t have to bring anything!

  14. Do I need an appointment?

    Every location is different! Some places in American Addition accept appointments, some require it, and others allow walk-ins. Please review all details on the resource page to understand how you should prepare for your visit.

  15. What kind of food do they have?

    Food pantries offer grocery-style items such as canned food, fresh produce, and dry goods like pasta or rice that you can cook yourself. Soup kitchens offer ready-to-eat items like hot meals or sandwiches. All of these locations may have different options on different days, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  16. Do they have vegetables?

    Pantries may have different options at different times, so it is hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day. Most pantries in American Addition do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.

  17. Do they have meat?

    Pantries may have different options on different days, so it’s hard to tell what each one of them will offer any given day.

  18. Any pantries open today?

    If you’ve signed up for personalized assistance through our text message helpline, please take a look at the links we’ve sent you! If none of the resources we’ve sent are open today, let us know and we can search for additional options. Here’s a list of everything in American Addition that’s open today: Temple of Faith Church of the Living God – RJ Hairston, Sr. Pantry, NNEMAP (Near Northside Emergency Material Assistance Program), Bethany Presbyterian Church , Mt Vernon AME Church

  19. Where are you located?

    Because our work is mostly virtual, the Lemontree team works remotely, and we don’t have an office in American Addition for in-person visits. You can always reach us by texting 90847 between 10am-6pm, every day of the week.
