Eligibility
It is the policy of the GDNPFP that every recipient who meets the applicable state and federal government eligibility requirements is allowed to receive food. Eligibility is based on income level and household size as set by Ohio Job and Family Services. It is the policy of the GDNPFP that recipients may come as often as they feel the need, consistent with our hours of operation.
Recipients should present some form of identification to verify their name and address. Those recipients arriving without a form of identification will be asked to provide identification the next time and will be allowed to proceed.
All recipients must certify their eligibility by registering their visit in Pantry Trak each and every time they receive food.
