A list of requested items can be found below.MORE ABOUT CHALMERS:Chalmers Community Services Centre (CCSC) is a registered charity that is the only no-proof-of-income-needed food pantry in the City of Guelph - operating Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Due to the pandemic severely limiting city-wide programs and supports for families, as well as income streams for many caregivers, CCS has seen numbers of first-time food pantry users increase exponentially. This was showcased as 1 in 7 residents in Guelph reported living in a food insecure household, with 1 in 6 reported being severely food insecure (2021). This has been perpetuated by increasing costs at the grocery stores on food, hygiene products, and basic household necessities. At CCSC, we pride ourselves in offering no-judgement services to Guelph patrons, allowing users to choose from a variety of food options that both are culturally-diverse, and adhere to those with dietary restrictions. We have a mandate to provide healthy, fresh food to our guest, propelled by philosophies of inclusiveness and community. We welcome all, and every attempt is made to create a warm, caring environment to those who attend.

OPTIONAL PANTRY DONATION – REQUESTED ITEMS • Cans of “no salt added” tomatoes• Low sodium pasta sauce• Cans of kidney beans, black beans and chick peas• Cans of beans in sauce• Canned vegetables: corn, mixed vegetables, peas, green beans• Rice• Pasta, elbow and spaghetti preferred• High fibre breakfast cereal• Rolled oats and plain instant oatmeal• Powdered milk• Canned meat: chicken, tuna• Tea​
