Everything is getting more expensive. Little Free Pantries are a way for neighbours to share when we can and receive when we experience need.

Like Little Free Libraries, our pantry will be on a neighbour’s lawn. Our team of volunteers and donors will manage the pantry, and ensure it is looked after and meeting the needs of our community.

If you would rather contribute financially or would like to volunteer your time with this project, please reach out. Email us at [email protected].

Check our Facebook page for pantry locations and updates: Calgary Little Free Pantries.
