Little Free Pantry and the mini-pantry movement apply the Little Free Library® concept to activate community engagement of food insecurity. 

 

 

Little Free Pantry is a grassroots, crowdsourced solution to immediate and local need. Whether a need for food or a need to give, Little Free Pantry facilitates feeding neighbors, nourishing neighborhoods.  

 
 

In 2017 about 11.8% of Americans were "food insecure,” representing about 15 million households. (See USDA here.)
