Food Pantry Network

Our pantries offer nutritious food, fresh produce, and other perishable items to strengthen and encourage households experiencing food insecurity.

Food Pantry Critical Needs

Currently, the pantry items we are in biggest need of are:

  1. Canned meats (tuna, hash, chili, vienna sausages, etc.)
  2. Canned carrots, potatoes (white and sweet), and mixed vegetables
  3. Peanut butter
  4. Cereal (whole grain and low sugar, if possible)
  5. Canned and dried beans (especially baked, black, chili, white, and kidney)
  6. Canned fruits (ideally unsweetened)
  7. Pasta, macaroni & cheese
  8. Shelf-stable milk
  9. Diapers, toilet paper and paper towels

As always, we especially seek low sodium, no sugar-added, and whole grain items.

The Crisis Center food pantry is located at 246 Country Club Dr NE in Concord.  We are operating a drive-through food pantry from 10am-1pm Monday through Friday.  The drive-thru pantry is also open every Thursday afternoon, from 3:30pm-6:00pm, for working clients. Clients may access our pantry once every calendar month.
PLEASE NOTE that food clients must be a resident of Cabarrus County or live within the Kannapolis city limits.
Among the foods distributed are healthy produce and other perishable items that are moved from grocery stores to kitchen table within 24 hours. Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina and volunteer pick-up drivers make this ministry possible.
We are always looking for volunteer pick-up drivers to pick up food from particular grocery stores and deliver to one of CCM’s pantries. For more information about how to volunteer, contact Lorie Williams.
