            The Lewis County Food Bank was initially formed as part of the Lewis County Family Resource Network (FRN) in 2004.  In 2014, the Lewis County Food Pantry branched out on its own and became a non-profit organization that provides emergency food assistance to the community  of Lewis County.

            Families referred to the Food Pantry for assistance must meet income guidelines, provide proof of income, referral letter (if appropriate), and must  call in advance to schedule an appointment.
