Join the Fight Against Hunger: Make a Lasting Impact in Orlando

At One Heart for Women and Children, we are dedicated to tackling hunger and fighting food insecurity in Orlando and beyond. We provide consistent access to nutritious food, improving health outcomes and strengthening our community. Beyond food, we host impactful community events, back-to-school drives, holiday support, and provide essential supplies for ALL in need. Together, we empower individuals and families to thrive, building a stronger, more connected community.

Programs

Community Food Pantry

Our Community Food Pantry Program is a crucial resource for families in need, providing essential food and supplies each month to children, women, men, seniors, and everyone facing food insecurity. Located at 2040 N Rio Grande Ave, Orlando, FL 32804, our pantry operates by appointment only, but we warmly welcome all new clients Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 11 AM to 4 PM to sign up for our program.

Mobile Food Distribution

In addition to our regular pantry hours, we host a monthly mobile food distribution at various locations across Orange County, bringing nutritious food directly to communities with limited resources or transportation.

Donation Drop-Off Site

Donate your gently used items at our location: 2040 N Rio Grande Ave, Orlando. We accept clothes, furniture, baby formula, diapers, mattresses, and all other essentials to help support families in need. Drop off Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, or Friday, from 8 AM to 4 PM.

Thrift Store

The One Heart Thrift Store is more than just a place to shop—it’s a source of support that strengthens our community and fuels our mission. The Thrift Store is open every Saturday 8AM-2PM and invites everyone to shop, donate, and be part of something bigger. Every purchase and donation directly supports our programs, helping us provide food, resources, and hope to families in need throughout Orlando.

Our Impact

Since Covid, we went from helping an average 3,000 clients a month…

To over 20,000 each month since, and the numbers haven’t gone down since

Now, as of January 2024, we are celebrating 10 Million Meals Given

Orange County's #1 Largest Food Pantry by Meals Distributed

We’re proud to be Second Harvest Food Bank’s largest distribution partner in Orange County, providing over 2.6 million pounds of food—2.2 million meals—last year alone. Together, we reach thousands of families each month, fueling our mission to fight hunger with dignity, hope, and real, lasting change for our community.

Our legacy is not measured by what we achieve individually, but by the impact we make together in the lives of those we serve.
