Our food pantry supports 30-35 local families each week through the distribution of food and basic essentials. This program was established in 1987 as a parting gift from Cora Mayo.
We provide canned and dried goods, paper products, cleaning supplies and hygiene items. We supply milk, cheese, eggs, and margarine. In the freezer we try to have a choice between hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken, sausage, meatballs etc. Twice a month we receive deliveries from Greater Boston Food Bank. Each week we get fresh fruits and produce that is given out with every order.
All Orleans residents can use Cora's Cupboard. No appointment is needed. A volunteer will quickly register you and give you a grocery list while you remain in your car. Your order will be filled and placed in your car. We encourage everyone to use the pantry to help save their money to pay other bills.
Food Pantry is open every Tuesday from 10am-12pm.
