We envision a community where everyone is nourished.

Founded in October 2004, the Tualatin Food Pantry is a community organized food pantry that serves food insecure people in our local communities. Clients are able to access emergency foods boxes with up to five days’ worth of food and personal supplies twice per month.

As a partner agency of the Oregon Food Bank, we work together to eliminate hunger and ensure food access. TFP has a small team of staff and relies on a dedicated team of volunteers for our daily operations. TFP is grateful to the in-kind support of Rolling Hills Church for reduced rent, but is not formally affiliated with the church and does not have any religious participation requirements to receive services. Any person experiencing food insecurity within our service area is welcome.

Our Founders

It all began with Mike Shiffer, Linda Moholt and Kay Nelson (now Gooding) who led a group of dedicated individuals to start a food pantry in the old Tualatin School. Featured in the Oregonian in 2004, the pantry celebrated an official ribbon cutting in 2009 after moving from the old Tualatin Elementary School to our current location at Rolling Hills Community Church.
