St Anthony of Padua Food Pantry

St. Anthony of Padua Food Pantry serves the New Bedford community with groceries, hot meals, and clothing to those in need. Operating under the St. Anthony of Padua Church, a Roman Catholic parish founded in 1895, the pantry assists approximately 200 families each week and welcomes food donations from parishioners and local businesses. The pantry's mission continues the charitable tradition of St. Anthony of Padua, who dedicated his life to serving the poor.
