• Community Cooperative Announces February Mobile Food Pantry Schedule and Locations

    Community Cooperative announces its Mobile Food Pantries schedule for February.

    The mobile food pantry program is one of Community Cooperative’s most innovative ways to bring food and assistance to neighborhoods with high food insecurity and that lack resources.

    ID is required for all attendees and bringing bags is encouraged with a limit of one mobile food pantry visit per month per household.

    The Community Market is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to noon for emergency groceries at the main campus, located at 3429 Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd. in Fort Myers for those who cannot access a mobile site.

    If you are interested in financially supporting, volunteering for, or have any questions about our Growing Healthy Kids & Families program, please visit us at www.CommunityCooperative.com or call 239-332-SOUP (7687).
