Annandale United Methodist Church seeks to alleviate hunger in our community by providing food once a week to those in need. We distribute items donated by individuals, nonprofits, farmer markets and local food services and grocery stores, as well as food we purchase. We serve between 350 and 400 families a week, using a client-choice model. Every effort is made to have milk and fresh produce available regularly along with bread and canned and dry goods.
Important: This mission serves community members living in the 22003 Annandale zip code. Clients must register showing evidence (utility bill, driver’s license, etc.) of living in our service area. One registration card/food pickup per household per week. Persons living outside zip code 22003 will be given a small bag of food with information about other food sites in Fairfax County.
