Mobile Market Truck
An oasis on wheels, bringing fresh, nutritious groceries to food deserts within our city. By mobilizing our mission to fight hunger, we are able to serve the economically challenged areas of our community. Our Mobile Market Truck is equipped with a refrigerated cooler to store dairy and protein options. One side of the truck opens to display selections of fresh fruit, produce, and bakery items. It is a complete choice experience.
Monthly Mobile Food Markets
By teaming up with the Tarrant Area Food Bank, Arlington Charities is able to hold large-scale food distributions at three different sites, three times a month. Mobile Food Markets are first-come, first-served and are open to all individuals and families without the need for an appointment.
Home Delivery Services
We offer supplemental grocery delivery service to older adults, mobility-impaired clients, or others who are unable to utilize our drive-through food services. A case manager call clients who are enrolled in the program to assess their needs, provide social interaction, and to connect them with other agencies and resources. Dietary restrictions due to allergy, health, or religion, will be noted in our records, but Arlington Charities cannot guarantee all items in a delivery will align with client’s needs. Contact:
