*UPDATE Due to Government Reopening*
With the federal government now reopened, some of the offers provided by local businesses are being discontinued. This remains an ever-changing situation, and we will share additional updates as they become available.
We are deeply inspired by the generosity of local Wayne County businesses - 5 Arch Brewing Company, Mancino's Richmond, The Firehouse BBQ and Blues, Sweet Blessings, Thai Thara Restaurant, IHOP Richmond, Block Head Records, Lulu's Tacos, Yamato Steakhouse&Sushi Richmond IN, Ullery's Homemade Ice-Cream who are offering free community meals to SNAP recipients in light of the upcoming delay to SNAP funding in November.
In addition, Suzie’s Pizza, Carlo's Cuisine Family Restuarant and Sweet Blessings are offering "Pay It Forward" boards with pre-paid meals by community members. If you're able, consider stopping by these locations to pay for a meal for someone in our community.
Let’s rally behind these incredible establishments!! If you’re able, please consider dining with these restaurants or ordering takeout to show your support and help their incredible generosity.
We've created an easy-to-access resource page listing other food pantries and meal sites: https://visitrichmond.org/visitors/welcome/local-resident-resources/
