About the Hamilton Food Cupboard
The Hamilton Food Cupboard is an advocate for the hungry in the Hamilton and Madison school districts. The food cupboard feeds those in need while providing information on social agencies relevant to a patron's specific needs. Each month between 150-200 families from the Hamilton and Madison school districts visit the food cupboard. ?Our summer lunch program runs for eight 8 weeks during the summer. Families of school age children receive a supplemental box of food per week to help get by when school is not in session. The Food Cupboard also has basic school supplies and backpacks for children who need them. With our partner Price Chopper, we're able to supply fresh fruits and vegetables.
