The Jackson Cupboard is a food pantry that opened its doors in 2001 and has been serving the Jackson community since that time. It is a non-political, non-religious organization. Our food bank operates off of 100% private donation; we receive no government funding. Last year 95% of monetary donations were used to purchase food for our clientele. In 2017, we served 5,000 people from the Jackson, WY area. We are grateful to the Jackson Hole community and grocery stores for the generosity they have provided. All client information is strictly confidential.
