MONETARY DONATIONS

Thank you for your contribution to the Batavia Interfaith Food Pantry and Clothes Closet. Your gift helps us build a strong foundation of care within our community.

While we receive many donations of non-perishable food and clothing, monetary gifts allow us to offer much needed milk, eggs, cereal, soap, toilet paper, diapers and laundry detergent. Through our cooperative buying power with the Northern Illinois Food Bank, we can turn a $1 gift into $8 worth of food.

Please join us in helping our neighbors in need.

You can donate in the following ways:
1. CASH
In person during the hours of operation or during one of our food drives.
2. CHECK
Please make your check payable to the Batavia Food Pantry and mail to: 431 N. Raddant Rd., Batavia IL 60510
3. PAYPAL
Please click on any of the buttons above. You will be directed to the PayPal website where you can complete your donation.
4. AMAZON SMILE
