Where to Donate Food and Frozen Goods.

A Benbrook resident recently asked if the YMCA’s food pantry accepts frozen items, sparking a helpful exchange across the community.

The answer is no—the YMCA share shelf, located just inside the front door, only accepts non-expired, non-perishable goods.

For frozen donations, neighbors pointed to alternatives. The Funky Town Fridge at Westside Presbyterian has freezer space, and the 24/7 community pantry at 8700 Chapin Road is another reliable drop-off spot.

Even better, some residents stepped up to connect directly, offering to share freezer clean-out items with families in need. It’s another example of how Benbrook neighbors continue to look out for one another.

If you’d like to give, consider donating to these local pantries or reaching out to families nearby who could use a little extra support.
