East Gwillimbury Public Library hosts a Food Pantry for families and individuals in need. Information on employment supports, housing assistance, and other community services will be available.

The pantry is held at the Holland Landing Community Centre, 19513 Yonge Street, Holland Landing. If you or someone you know requires this service, please let them know that they can access the Food Pantry the last Saturday of every month with the exception of December, unless stated otherwise. Visitors will be asked a few short intake questions and be required to provide their current address and contact information. Preregistration is not mandatory but appreciated.

Please contact us at foodpantry@egpl.ca or 905-836-6492 if you have questions.
