Families are encouraged to visit the allowed 4 times per month.
We have gone back to client choice, where you can choose your own items,
OR we can pack boxes (according to family sizes) for you!
Welcome to Helping Hands of Roseville's webpage and this client assistance section.
If you have not visited the Pantry before, this page aims to help prepare you for that first visit and hopefully answer questions you might have before arriving.

- There is a new parking arrangement at the Pantry. Clients will not be coming in to pick up a number but will wait in their car in a line in the designated area of the parking lot. You will be served in the order you are parked in the line. Once you move from the waiting area to the loading area, please come in to pick-up your groceries.
- On your initial visit you will be asked to fill out a form that provides the Pantry with your name, address, phone number. This form will be signed each time you visit the food pantry. An additional sheet will be signed if you meet the Annual Income Guidelines as set by the Illinois Emergency Food Assistance Program. On following visits the intake staff will ask to make sure information is current and up to date in your file. Privacy protection is important to us; your information will be carefully guarded. If you are unable to sign the The Emergency Food Assistance Program (EFP) form because your income exceeds the allowable amount to receive government-issued commodities, you will still be able to receive from the additional food the Pantry has in stock.
