How often can I receive food from the Food Pantry?

Once every 30 Days you can receive a week’s worth of groceries. 

I’m staying in a tent, car or shelter, can I still get food?

Yes, we have Emergency Kits specifically for this reason. These kits have easy open food that does not need to be cooked on a stove.  You can receive these kits twice each month.

Meijer Simply Give

CCIEC is happy to partner with Meijer at its Capital City Market location, 600 E Michigan Ave Ste 100, to provide hunger relief to local families through its Simply Give hunger relief program.

To help reduce hunger in the Greater Lansing area, purchase a $10 Simply Give donation card upon checkout. Once purchased, the donation is converted into a Meijer Food-Only Gift Card and donated directly to CCIEC. Meijer customers shopping online using Meijer pickup or home delivery can also purchase Simply Give donation cards as an add-on to their orders.

Want to have a greater impact? Double match days are March 7th and 21st! For every $10 Simply Give card contributed on this day, Meijer will provide $20, bringing the total contribution to $30. If you don't shop at Capital City Market and want to support CCIEC through participating in Meijer Simply Give, please go to our website at CatholicCharitiesIEC.org, click “Donate,” and select the drop-down option "Meijer Simply Give.” If mailing your donation, write "Meijer Simply Give" on the envelope or check CCIEC will purchase the Simply Give cards on your behalf, tripling your impact.
