VA Opens Pantry for Veterans in Need

Veterans who live in Nebraska and are in need can get help at a pantry at the Department of Veterans Affairs Community-Based Outpatient Clinic.

Beginning February 4, the pantry is open on the first Monday of every month from 10 a.m. to noon. The pantry will be open Sept. 9 since the first Monday in that month is the Labor Day holiday.

Pantry Located At:

Department of Veterans Affairs Community-Based Outpatient Clinic
600 S. 70th St, Building 105 Room 50
Lincoln, NE

Veterans with a need, especially those who are low-income, near homeless, or homeless who are not living in a shelter are eligible.

The pantry provides items including canned foods, grains, meats and bread. Fresh produce is available when it is in season. Hygiene products are also available upon request.

Veterans must show a valid state identification card or a piece of mail postmarked within the past 60 days that contains their name and Nebraska address.

The pantry is co-sponsored by the VA Nebraska-Western Iowa Health Care System and the Food Bank of Lincoln.
