The Dana-Farber Food Basket is a free, on-site food pantry for patients. We offer healthy food in a welcoming, respectful, and judgment-free space. Our goal is to ease stress and help support patients during cancer treatment.
About the Food Basket
Dana-Farber's food pantry provides access to healthy foods and basic household essentials for patients and families who need help accessing them. Offerings may change over time based on patient feedback and availability. The Food Basket is designed to:
- Reduce hunger
- Support dignity
- Promote well-being
Who Can Use the Food Basket?
Currently, the Food Basket is available for Dana-Farber pediatric and Jimmy Fund Clinic patients and their families who would like help getting healthy food and other everyday essentials. There are future plans to expand our services to adult patients as well as our regional campuses. We offer foods and supplies that reflect different cultural backgrounds and dietary needs. There are no income limits or other requirements to use the pantry.
