Mainspring Food Pantry in Portland, OR, is dedicated to supporting individuals and families facing food insecurity, including children, adults, and seniors who are experiencing financial hardship or recent unemployment. Our mission is to ensure that every community member has access to essential food assistance to meet their basic nutritional needs. We operate as a welcoming, open-air, self-select food pantry, allowing clients to choose the items that best suit their families. You can visit us once a month, and we encourage you to bring your reusable grocery bags, as supplies can be limited. We are here to help, open Monday through Thursday from 9:30 AM to 12 PM, with extended hours until 1:30 PM on Thursdays. Together, we strive to create a supportive environment where everyone can find the nourishment they need during difficult times.
