Nestled in the heart of Wyoming, Pinedale is a community built on resilience, compassion, and a commitment to taking care of one another. At the Pinedale Community Food Basket, we’re proud to be a cornerstone of this effort, working tirelessly to address food insecurity, provide emergency assistance, and help families regain stability during challenging times.
This is more than just a mission for us; it’s a calling to create a thriving community where no one goes to bed hungry or faces hardship alone. Through the unwavering support of our volunteers, donors, and partners, we are making a difference—one family, one meal, and one act of kindness at a time.
Nourishing Our Neighbors
Food insecurity is a reality that many families in Pinedale face daily. Whether it’s because of job loss, unexpected medical expenses, or other financial hurdles, putting nutritious food on the table can be a struggle. That’s where the Pinedale Community Food Basket steps in.
Monthly Food Distribution
On the third Thursday of every month, we open our doors to distribute fresh, nutritious food to families in need. From canned goods and pantry staples to dairy, meat, and fresh produce, we aim to provide a balanced selection that supports health and well-being. Our distribution process is simple and respectful, ensuring every family feels welcome and valued.
Emergency Food Assistance
Life doesn’t always wait for the third Thursday. That’s why we also offer emergency food assistance on a case-by-case basis. Whether someone’s facing an unexpected crisis or simply running low on essentials, we’re here to help bridge the gap. Simply call our offices at 307-231-4640 and let us know your situation and see how we can help. Even if it isn’t about food, our volunteers have a network of support that might be able to assist you!
Our goal is not just to provide short-term relief but to empower families to overcome challenges and build a more secure future.
Community Contributions That Matter
You—the generous individuals, businesses, and organizations that donate food, funds, and time – power our ability to fight hunger. Every can of soup, every bag of rice, and financial donation goes directly toward feeding our neighbors and easing their burdens.
Every donation strengthens our community and helps our neighbors. Your connections to the community, your experience and expertise and perhaps most importantly, your compassion, are the reason Pinedale Community Food Basket can do what we do. Thank you for all your support!
Helping Families Get Back on Their Feet
At the Pinedale Community Food Basket, we believe in more than just providing temporary relief—we believe in creating pathways to long-term stability. Our programs and partnerships are designed to help families regain their footing and achieve independence. Though we offer short-term assistance, it is with a long-term goal in mind. Strengthening families strengthens our community and makes us all more resilient as a county.

Empowering Through Partnerships
We work closely with local organizations, churches, and businesses to extend our reach and impact. Whether it’s through collaborative events, resource sharing, or referral networks, these partnerships enable us to provide more comprehensive support to our community.

Building a Brighter Future
The true measure of our impact lies in the stories of those we serve. Families who once struggled to make ends meet but are now thriving. Seniors who no longer have to choose between food and medication. Parents who can provide their children with nutritious meals and a stable home.
These stories inspire us to keep going and remind us why our work matters. Every bag of groceries, every dollar donated, and every hour volunteered represents a step toward a stronger, more compassionate community.
As we look to the future, our vision remains steadfast: a Pinedale where no one goes hungry, every family has the support they need, and our community thrives together. But we can’t do it alone. Your support—whether as a donor, volunteer, or advocate—is the foundation of our success.
Together, we can create a stronger, more compassionate Pinedale.
Because when we stand together, there’s nothing our community can’t overcome.
