COA’s Food Pantry at the Goldin Center

Since 2018, COA partnered with Hunger Task Force to open a brand new community food pantry in our Goldin Center! Located within our Ethel Nutis Gill Family Resource Center, COA’s new food pantry serves approximately 1000 people per month. Located within Milwaukee’s largest food desert, the food pantry continues to provide hundreds of families with access to healthy food.

The new food pantry is one-of-a-kind because it allows families to connect to all the other resources and programs that COA has to offer. The Resource Center (FRC) provides fun activities and drop-in programming for families with children ages birth to six, including playtime, art projects, reading, songs, and snacks.

COA is grateful for our strong partnership with Hunger Task Force. Thanks to their vital support, the food pantry continues to grow and thrive.
