We are accepting food and personal care donations, focusing ONLY on what is on our Top Ten List. Fresh Garden produce is also accepted.

Due to our current food distribution process, donated items that are not on our Top 10 list will likely not be utilized for quite some time. If you are purchasing items specifically for donation, please refer to the Top 10 list. The list is updated several times per month and reflects the items that are most beneficial to our clients and current process.

We have limited food and clothing donation hours. Please read the following guidelines before you make your donation.

DONATE FOOD AND CLOTHING - COVID-19

Thank you for helping us keep volunteers and staff safe by following these guidelines.

Financial donations - Over the next months, our operations may need to significantly shift and we may have unplanned expenses to try and continue to assist our community. Many of the people we serve are already at a greater risk, including low-income families, people with existing health conditions, healthcare workforce, and older adults. Donations are always welcome and helpful.

Food Pantry

MOM's Food Pantry is one of the largest in Dane County. Open six days per week, clients can use the pantry as off as they need, effectively ending hunger for anyone living in our Service Area.

COVID-19 Updates

Continuing service to our clients remains a priority, as will be minimizing exposure and transmission for all who come to MOM (volunteers, clients, donors, etc.). We will communicate what we are doing so that together we can help minimize risk while providing essential services to people in our community.
