Broward County Community Kitchen

Hours: 8:30 am to 11am.

The community kitchen is open to anyone who is in need. Diners await the opening of the center at 8:30 a.m. On most days, the food distribution is completed by 11:00 a.m. If it's close to the end of the month and people have exhausted all their money and food, we often see a sharp increase in the number of people waiting on line to eat. On those days, the kitchen will remain open a bit longer to facilitate all those who have waited in line to get some food.

LifeNet4Families offers daily, hot, nutritious meals in our community kitchen. While mainly serving Broward's ever-expanding homeless population, the dining room is also the place where hungry families can visit during the summer when no school meals are available.

Lunch bag program
Currently, we are distributing about 200 sandwiches or lunch packs each day.

Emergency Food Pantry Broward County
Our ability to meet the needs of our neighbors is a direct result of a generous community. We receive food donations from a wide variety of groups and local businesses. We receive financial assistance from individuals, corporations and foundations. Our volunteers are the heart of our organization, providing a positive experience for our clients. How can you help? Food drives, year round, continue to be the best way to keep our shelves stocked with good food choices. If you take on the food drive challenge, ask for peanut butter, healthy low sugar cereal, shelf stable milk and brown rice.
