You meet income guidelines: Even if you don’t receive government assistance, you may still qualify if your household income falls within the state’s requirements (generally 200% of the Federal Poverty Level or below). Click here to view the Florida Standard Income Guidelines.

To make the pickup process as smooth and efficient as possible, we provide all food in pre-assembled bundles.

When you arrive during our distribution hours, our team will provide you with a prepared selection of groceries. This "bundle" system allows us to serve more families quickly while ensuring that every household receives a fair and balanced variety of proteins, produce, and dry goods.

To ensure our neighbors receive a balanced variety of groceries, we typically distribute food in pre-assembled bundles. While the specific items change weekly based on the donations we receive, a standard bundle generally includes: two types of protein—such as poultry, pork, or beef—along with a variety of seasonal produce, starches like rice or potatoes, and essential pantry staples including grains, canned goods, and cereal.

Because our inventory relies on the generosity of local donors and suppliers, the exact contents of each bundle are subject to change. We strive to provide a diverse selection of nutritious options every time you visit.

Currently, eligible recipients may visit the food pantry once every two weeks. If we receive higher volumes of donations, we may announce additional distribution days. If an extra day(s) become available, all current pantry participants will be notified. Please ensure your contact information is up to date with us so you don't miss these announcements.

To make your experience as easy as possible, we use a pre-assembled bundle system.

When you arrive at the pantry, there is no need to get out of your vehicle or shop through aisles. Simply pull up, and our friendly volunteers will bring your food directly to your vehicle. 

To receive food from the Feeding You With Love Food Pantry, we require a valid photo ID at the time of pickup. This helps us ensure that we are accurately serving our community members and keeping our records up to date.

We understand that you may not always be able to make it in person. If you have assigned an authorized individual to pick up your groceries, the authorized person must also provide their own photo ID at the time of distribution. They should be prepared to provide your name so we can locate your record.

Unfortunately, we do not deliver food at this time. 

At this time, we cannot accommodate specific dietary restrictions or allergies as our stock varies weekly based on donations.

To register for our food pantry, you will need to provide the following documentation or information when completing the registration form to determine eligibility to receive food assistance.

Household Information: The number of household individuals, dates of birth, relationships to the applicant and the nationality/race of each household individual.

Self-Attestation Requirement: Upon registration, all participants will be required to sign a Self-Attestation Clause. By signing this clause, the participant is formally certifying that: (I) All information provided regarding your residency, citizenship, income, and household information is true and accurate. (II) You meet the eligibility requirements for food assistance. (III) You understand that providing false information may result in disqualification from the program.
 

Below are the eligible qualifying Government Assistance programs:

• Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP): Formerly known as "Food Stamps," this program provides a monthly balance on an EBT debit card to help low-income individuals and families buy groceries at authorized retailers.
• Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF): Often referred to as "Temporary Cash Assistance" in Florida, this program provides monthly financial help to low-income families with children to help cover essential costs like rent, utilities, and clothing.
• Supplemental Security Income (SSI): Provides monthly payments to adults and children with a disability or blindness who have very limited income and resources.
• Social Security Disability Insurance (SSD): Provides monthly benefits to individuals who can no longer work due to a significant disability and have a qualifying work history. While eligibility is based on your work history, it is also income-restricted: to remain eligible, your monthly earnings from work cannot exceed the "Substantial Gainful Activity" (SGA) limit set by the government.
• Medicaid: A joint federal and state program that provides free or low-cost health coverage to low-income adults, children, pregnant women, elderly adults, and people with disabilities.

To maintain a fair and sustainable distribution process, our policy strictly limits food assistance to one (1) registered individual per household. This rule allows us to manage our inventory effectively and serve the maximum number of families in need.

No, you do not need to schedule an appointment yourself. Once your application has been submitted, our office will review and process your information. After you are approved, a member of our team will contact you to provide a specific pickup date and time.

We understand that life happens! If you know you won’t be able to make your scheduled time, please contact the office as soon as possible at 656-232-9355 or via email at feedingyouwithlove@gmail.com.

As long as you notify us before your scheduled window, it will not count as a no-show. If you cancel a reservation, your next available pickup day will be your normal pick up date in two weeks. To maintain our scheduling balance, we cannot reschedule you for the following week.

To ensure we can serve as many families as possible and prevent fresh food from going to waste, we rely on our recipients to arrive during their scheduled pickup times.

If you are unable to make your scheduled pickup and do not notify the pantry office in advance, your appointment will be recorded as a "No Show." Recipients who have two (2) consecutive no-shows will unfortunately become ineligible to receive food from the pantry. 

This policy is in place as our resources and volunteer time are limited. When a recipient misses an appointment without notice, that food could have been given to another family in need. By letting us know you can't make it, you help us keep our operations efficient and fair for everyone in the community.
