Perry Morrice Shaftsburg Emergency Relief Council

Serving residents in Perry, Morrice and Shaftsburg since 1982, the Perry Food Bank wants everyone in our community to have access to safe, nutritious food. Located at Perry City Hall (lower level, east entrance nearest Polly Street), we are an independently run non-profit organization.

If you can use assistance with food, please call 517-625-6155 extension 6 to leave a message. Our team of dedicated volunteers will schedule an appointment.

We always appreciate donations of non-perishable food items in good, clean, and unopened condition. You can drop off donations at Carl’s Supermarket, 520 N. Main St, Perry, MI 48872. We also love donations of personal care items, detergent, dish soap, and toilet paper!

Monetary donations can be sent to PO Box 783, Perry, MI  48872.

As an all-volunteer non-profit organization, the Perry Food Bank is committed to providing services to Perry, Morrice and Shaftsburg residents in a friendly and non-judgmental atmosphere.  Our residents can expect to:

  •  Be treated with respect and compassion at all times.
  •  Receive food and personal care items free of charge as our budget allows.
  •  Receive food that is safe to eat.
  • Receive food and services no matter their race, family status, gender, disability, religious belief, or sexual preference.
  • Not have to give anything or take part in any religious or other organizational activities in order to receive services.
  • Not have to take any food items that do not meet their dietary needs or religious beliefs.
  • Have their personal information kept secure and receive assistance in confidence.

In turn, we ask that our clients provide proof of residency. You must reside within the Perry or Morrice school districts to access the Food Bank. (School of choice is not residency if you live in a different district.) Residents can visit the Food Bank once a month.

We can also provide contacts and resource information to people who live outside of our service area; contact us via our Facebook page for more information:  https://www.facebook.com/PerryFoodBank.
