The St. Mary’s Food Pantry is located at 22R Lakeside Drive, Pompton Lakes, and is accessible from the municipal parking lot - the “pond hole”. We distribute food to people in need during four distribution sessions per month offering a variety of non-perishable food as well as frozen meat and dairy products. Shoppers may come one time per month to one of these sessions.
The people we serve are primarily from Pompton Lakes but during the pandemic more individuals from neighboring communities have joined the numbers needing our services.
During the month of June, we happily resumed inside food shopping, preferred by our shoppers and volunteers, and we will continue to respond as necessary to the evolving effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

During the pandemic, we have instituted cleaning/sanitizing procedures and occupancy limits in an effort to best protect both our volunteers and members/shoppers. Our food distribution methods are subject to change in response to the evolving conditions. It is our goal to institute protocols that reflect CDC guidelines, along with the directives of the Governor, the Diocese of Paterson and St. Mary’s Parish. Changing conditions may impact some of our operational plans and volunteer activities found below.
Individuals who are interested in volunteering during the pandemic should feel free to contact us for more information regarding the safety protocols we have instituted.
