The Allston Brighton Food Pantry provides nourishing food at no cost to members of the local community.
ABFP Update
Dear Friends,
We hope you and your family are staying safe with the recent storms. Our staff and team at the Allston Brighton Food Pantry remain committed to showing up for our neighbors, especially in moments like this.
To continue our mission, we must ensure our building is safe and stable for everyone who walks through our doors. We will remain closed until the water damage is fully mitigated, the roofing is repaired, and we have an accessible bathroom. The safety and dignity of our guests, volunteers, and staff come first.
We will continue to utilize our 24/7 community fridge outside the church. We will be accepting deliveries and keeping our fridge and pantry stocked.
Please reach out to Grace Wang at volunteer@brightonallstonucc.
For those who wish to support the Pantry during this closure, donations are deeply appreciated and can be made via Venmo (@ABFoodPantry) or PayPal.
We will continue to share updates on repairs and reopening plans through our website and social media. Thank you for your patience, generosity, and steadfast support. We are deeply grateful for this community and look forward to welcoming you back.
Dear Friends,
We will continued to be closed for the following week of February 22-28th. Please do not hesitate to contact volunteer@brightonallstonucc.org for any questions or concerns. Thank you for your patience and support during this time.
Dear Friends,
Due to roof damage and water infiltration caused by massive ice dams, the Allston Brighton Food Pantry will be closed for approximately two weeks while stabilization and remediation work is completed. This pause is necessary to ensure the safety of our guests, staff, and volunteers. While this interruption is difficult, we are grateful to be addressing these issues now and remain hopeful about reopening as soon as it is safe to do so.
During the closure, we will share weekly updates so you can stay informed about our progress.
For neighbors who need food during this time, please refer them to:
- Allston Brighton Food Chain — a coordinated network of nearby food access points
- Other food distributions across Greater Boston
Once the building is safe and dry, we will organize volunteer clean-up opportunities, and we look forward to welcoming volunteer groups back as soon as possible.
For those who wish to support the Pantry during this closure, donations are deeply appreciated and can be made via Venmo (@ABFoodPantry) or PayPal.
Thank you for your patience, generosity, and continued care for our neighbors. We are deeply grateful for this community and look forward to opening our doors again soon.
