Who are we…

Pay it forward Food Pantry is a 501c(3) agency made up of volunteers who are dedicated to providing food for their Caldwell County neighbors who need food. Established in 2004 as a mission of Fairview Presbyterian Church serving around 30 people per month, it is now an independent organization serving over 800 per month. It is housed at 2058 Harper Ave, NW in Lenoir. It is governed by a diverse board of directors from the community. Grants and donations provide funding for Pay It Forward Food Pantry. This food pantry is certified by the IRS as a tax exempt non-profit organization; thereby, donations are tax deductible as allowed by law. Contributions of any amount are welcome that will go directly for food and operational expense.
