Western Fairfax Christian Ministries offers a “choice model” pantry which empowers our clients. Our clients can come to our food pantry for a private appointment in Chantilly or Centreville and select food as they would at a grocery store by picking their own food items from the shelves, but there is no charge for the food. We do everything we can to continually stock all the items that would make a fully nutritious meal including culturally preferred items such as Maseca flour and Halal meat. Products include non-perishable items such as canned goods, as well as bread, produce, meat, and dairy products. In addition to food items we also carry baby-specific items such as diapers and baby food for those who have infants. We know that food can be one of the most expensive items on a household budget list. Our hope is that when clients select food in our pantry every 30 days (providing food for about two weeks) they will save enough money to pay for other expenses such as utility bills while remaining food secure with free nutritious food options for their families.

​

Food and toiletry items are purchased with grant funds or donated by amazingly generous people in the community, grocery store partners, and in response to food drives we hold throughout the year. We are extremely grateful for the support of everyone who donates to our pantry including organizations such as the Sully District Boy Scouts, local congregations, and grocery stores, area schools, and community residents.

Special thanks to the local grocery stores that donate perishable goods and produce to our food pantry:
