THE MATSU FOOD BANK
The MATSU Food Bank was formed to allow us to collect, store and distribute surplus food to other Food Pantries and agencies across the Mat-Su Valley.
THE FOOD PANTRY OF WASILLA
The Food Pantry of Wasilla began in 1984, gaining our 501 status in 1994. We continue to operate a food pantry to this day under the banner of the MATSU Food Bank. Pantries distribute food collected to members of the community who are in need. We distribute our TEFAP program, which allows us direct ordering and shipping from the government of the food supplies they provide. We also provide Senior boxes to our Elders.
