About our Food Pantry

The main service One Heart for Women and Children provides is food for all who are in need. Through federal programs, anyone who is in need of food is eligible to receive USDA commodities food (TEFAP). Residents of Orlando are eligible to receive additional food such as perishable and non-perishable food including dairy, fresh produce, baked goods, frozen meats and more.

“In 2020 in Orange County, 18.6% of individuals (1 in 5 individuals) and 28.6% of children (1 in 4) experienced food insecurity. Food insecurity refers to USDA’s measure of lack of access, at times, to enough food for an active, healthy life for all household members and limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate foods. Food-insecure households are not necessarily food insecure all the time. Food insecurity may reflect a household’s need to make trade-offs between important basic needs, such as housing or medical bills, and purchasing nutritionally adequate foods.” – info provided by Second Harvest

The food One Heart distributes comes from donations from local grocery stores, farms, food sponsors, businesses and individuals. To bridge the gap between donated goods and the demand for food needed, One Heart is in partnership with Second Harvest Food Bank of Central Florida, a member of Feeding America, to have a shared cost for non-perishable food and meat.

Food is available by appointment for pickup on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 12pm-3pm (closed Wednesday & Sunday).  If you are a first-time client, visit us during these days and times to schedule your future appointment.  Food is distributed at One Heart for Women and Children in College Park at 2040 N. Rio Grande Ave, Orlando, Florida, 23804.

To donate food:

Please drop off non-perishable, non-expired, non-breakable items at One Heart for Women and Children on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 9am – 3pm and Saturday from 8am-2pm.
