New Downtown Food Pantry
FREE food to our community every Tuesday and Thursday! Cornell University, Greater Ithaca Activities Center , and Food Bank of the Southern Tier have partnered to create a new downtown food pantry.

They hope to provide food packages, each containing a three-day supply for a family of four, to 200 families on Tuesday and another 200 families on Thursday.”
GIAC is located at 301 West Court Street in Downtown Ithaca.
