Visiting Us

To receive food assistance from Buffalo Food Shelf, you are welcome during our regular distribution hours.

Additionally, we offer a dedicated “Senior Day” program for those aged 55 and older on the first Monday of every month.

We follow the eligibility requirements from The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)

Annual Federal Poverty Guidelines 2026-2027_English.pdf

We ask that households come only one time per month to allow everyone access to the food that we have available.
