Our Daily Bread Food Pantry
Our Daily Bread Food Pantry is open to anyone in the greater Wichita area who is hungry and needs food for themselves or their families. Many come for food because of an unforeseen crisis, illness, job loss or accident.
The pantry is operated on a client-choice model, meaning that clients can expect a “shopping experience” when they visit. With the help of a volunteer personal shopping assistant, the client chooses the items that they or their families will enjoy.
One time each month, clients may come to the pantry to select 2-3 days’ worth of food from a variety of fresh and canned fruits and vegetables, pasta and rice, breakfast items, dairy, canned and frozen meats and other proteins, and breads.

Kansas Food Assistance
The Food Assistance Program helps low-income Americans purchase nutritious, healthy food. However, only half of those eligible to receive food assistance benefits are currently enrolled. Nationally, the program is known as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP); in Kansas, it is called Food Assistance Program.
“We try to make people feel relaxed. We give them reassurance that this is what the pantry is for: ‘You are in need right now, and this is what we are here for, is to help you out in this time of your life.’”
