What Does the Pantry Do? Residents of the Dayton area work with the nonprofit Healthy Communities Coalition of Lyon and Storey in volunteer service to keep the pantry going strong. Volunteers range from the very young to elders, and come from all walks of life, united by the belief that no one should go hungry.
From the Pantry site at Enterprise Way and Highway 50 in Dayton, emergency food boxes are provided during weekday hours (Mon-Thurs from 10am-4pm), and monthly food boxes are provided for the Dayton Senior Center Homebound list. Food is packed and delivered each Friday for local students through a school “Backpack Program”, providing nearly 200 students K-12 with much-needed food during the weekends.
The Pantry offers its primary food distribution on the third Saturday of each month from 1p.m. - 3p.m. at Sutro Elementary school.
Through fundraisers, grants, USDA, and the generous donations of businesses and private citizens in the region, the Pantry is able to help locals of all ages avoid hunger. The Pantry also collects food through Food Bank of Northern Nevada and benefits from reduced price rates from many area businesses.
