Food insecurity does not take vacations! Help WUMCO Keep Food on Shelves 

Help your neighbors who are experiencing food insecurity!  Our local food pantry at WUMCO Help continues to see an unprecedented high demand for food assistance.  

WUMCO needs help to keep food on their shelves for their clients who are mostly area seniors and working-parent families who are food insecure. Anything is appreciated, but there are some particular needs. 

  • Items for families with children who are not receiving meals at school: 
  • Individually wrapped snacks (granola bars, crackers), Microwave Meal cups (EZ Mac), Peanut butter and Jelly (small jars), Individually wrapped breakfast items (oatmeal packets, breakfast bars). 
  • Soups 
  • Baked Beans 
  • Personel Hygiene items 
  • Cleaning products 
  • Diapers (size 4, 5,6, Pullups)  

Remember WUMCO when you are grocery shopping, especially taking advantage of those BOGOs. Think of the things you need in your own household including cleaning supplies and personal hygiene products.   

Donations can be dropped anytime in the box in the Pike & Valega, DDS parking lot or brought to WUMCO (17821 Elgin Rd, Poolesville) on weekday mornings 9 until noon. Or bring a food item with you to any in-person event in Speer Hall and place it in the marked bin. Thank you!
