Dos Santos Food Pantry
what we believe
We believe access to food is a fundamental human right.
“Hunger is not an issue of charity. It is an issue of justice.” —Jacques Diouf
what we do
Dos Santos Food Pantry provides healthy, culturally appropriate food to the immigrant and agricultural worker communities in Accomack and Northampton Counties of Virginia’s Eastern Shore.
Rising housing and food costs—combined with recent mass layoffs from Shore employers—have vastly increased the number of our neighbors who are seeking help with food insecurity.
Dos Santos currently serves approximately 800 FAMILIES a month. We offer emergency food staples throughout the month at our permanent location in Onley, and our mobile pantry operates in Pungoteague (1st Sunday of the month), Parksley (2nd Sunday), and Eastville (3rd Sunday).
The need for our services has never been higher, nor have our costs. Please join us in making a difference in the life of a family facing hunger by donating to and/or volunteering with Dos Santos.
