Went there this morning at around 10:30 am. Some illegal immigrant assisted me on where to park, and was rude, got annoyed with me and was very impatient when I was attempting to ask questions about how does the assistance work. They also only pay $100 towards your utility bills. Never going back.

Terrible it used to be great in 2020 now when I brought paperwork back today to get food they refused because my SSI was on my phone app and SSI have never sent me award letters since 2016 after my bank account hacking and everything comes up proof since then by only phone since 2016 very disappointed and disgruntled about the New rules and regulations so I won't be going back ever again

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

They're awesome I can only go twice a month but that's way much for me, but too much bread but there is a variety of different types and flavors. They give you so much food I have never been to a food give away that gives so much, and the people working there don't look at you with disdain or judgemental

We do a Christmas feast for the Homeless and less fortunate. Search on Facebook "Helping the Homeless in Hemet and San J." The Community Pantry in Hemet Does not give Christmas Food Baskets but they will help with supplemental food help. Also if u need dog food or hygenial things they give that too.

How do they help the homeless? Heard they used to offer showers& wash clothes & offer toothbrushes etc? Do they still do that since COVID hit?

Valley Community Pantry | Aug 22, 2021

The Community Pantry I do not believe they used to offer these services. The church where we are located used to offer showers and other items but some of the homeless were too aggressive and they had to shut it down.
