    Info

    The food is distributed from the building across the parking lot from the church and that is connected to the St. Francis International School building. People enter/exit the doors directly under the big blue sign that reads: 1500 St. Camillus Drive.

    Everyone gets a food pantry card that allows them to receive every 4 weeks. Newcomers are registered and given a card the first time they come. All recipients must be registered.

    The only requirements are that they be at least 18 years of age and can show us some form of personal ID (driver's license, passport, home country ID... ) something with their name and date of birth.

    We have no other requirements for registration.

    Each time they come, they need to bring ID and Pantry card which gets scanned and the distribution recorded in our system.

    There can only be 1 card per family, so husband and wife cannot each have a card, for example.

  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.

  6. Can someone deliver the food to my house?

    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 Crystal Springs.

  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!

  15. Do I need an appointment?

    Every location is different! Some places in Crystal Springs 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.

  16. 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.

  17. 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 Crystal Springs do give out some form of vegetables, but they may be canned items.

  18. 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.

  19. 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 Crystal Springs that’s open today: St. Camillus Food Pantry, Crossover Church

  20. Where are you located?

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