Our Mission: to lead and engage our community
in the fight against hunger and poverty.
Arlington Charities provides individuals and families with free, nutritious, supplemental groceries. Last year, we served over 90,000 Arlington area residents.
Just $25 can feed a family of three for a week. A gift from you, makes it possible for 90,000 Arlington area residents to have nutritious food when it's needed most.
At Arlington Charities, we help to stabilize families and individuals by providing immediate, temporary assistance during their most critical time of need. Everyone, at every stage in life, deserves their basic needs to be met. No one should go hungry. Sometimes, all it takes is a helping hand.
