Interchange is one of the few city-wide food pantries in Milwaukee. It serves guests regardless of their zip code. In 2026, we anticipate serving over 60,000 guests.

​

Your  support will help us sustain our three key programs in 2026:

​

1. The Fresh Fruits and Vegetable Program                                                                                                 This cornerstone initiative ensures access to high-quality, nutrient-rich, culturally relevant fresh produce. Since donated fruits and vegetables are often insufficient or of poor quality, we purchase 97% of what we provide our guests from Milwaukee wholesale suppliers. The estimated cost of this program in 2026 is $125,000

2. The Interchange Thanksgiving Dinner Giveaway
   In 2026, our fifth year of the T-Day Giveaway, the Interchange Food Pantry will provide 1,400 families with a Holiday Dinner to the underserved families of our community. The Thanksgiving Dinner provides a choice of a turkey or ham, traditional sides, and 15 pounds of fresh produce. The Giveaway is on the weekend before Thanksgiving at both locations. 

3. The School's Out for Summer Peanut Program
   Summer months can be challenging for children who rely on school meal programs. Peanut butter, a shelf-stable protein, helps bridge this gap. In 2026, thanks to our member congregations, Feeding America, Hunger Task Force, schools, businesses and local churches we are well on our way to providing 4,500 jars of peanut butter to families with children over the summer.
