The Share Food Share Love Food Pantry is open for distribution on Tuesday evenings from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Saturday mornings from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The Pantry is located at 3801 Madison Avenue in Brookfield, in the lower level of the Faith Lutheran Church building.
No income verification or proof of need is required to receive food, however, clients are required to complete a very simple registration upon arriving at the Pantry. Registration can be completed anytime the Pantry is open for distribution. Proof of residency is requested and clients are eligible to receive food once each calendar month. When coming to receive food, please bring your own bags or other containers to pack your items.
