Nativity Outreach

FOOD BANK & FOOD PANTRY


Our mission is to combat hunger in the Brandon/Valrico area and throughout Hillsborough Country by means of weekly food distribution at Nativity Catholic Church and other non-profits, churches and ministries.


Nativity Food Bank


Our Food Bank supplies a satellite system of small food pantries and street ministries that radiate from Nativity miles into Hillsborough County, enabling the hungry to be served with dignity, in their neighborhoods through a program sensitive to their needs.


Nativity Food Bank supplements a network of 55 small food pantries and street ministries. Forty-five are served every two weeks, and 12 others occasionally. These organizations register with us to determine their need and tax-exempt status. We operate two large delivery trucks and one refrigerated delivery truck daily.


We transform lives.


Nativity Food Pantry


Nativity Food Pantry serves families in the Brandon/Valrico area. The pantry is open for food distribution every Thursday between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM.  Individuals living outside our service area are aided through referrals to other local pantries that network with our Food Bank.


Serving Brandon & Valrico areas since 1983
