About Us

We are working to help Waukesha and beyond.

Friends With Food is a non-profit food pantry serving the residents of Southeastern Wisconsin. We help over 300 families every week! Check out our fundraising events to help support our mission.

Our Mission & Story

Started on March 13, 2020, when COVID hit our communities.

Anticipating a shutdown, everyone was scrambling to see if they had enough supplies and were packing the stores to stock up. It was also the week Rochelle attended an online meeting from her corporate team at NextHome (Real Estate Brokerage). During the meeting, they encouraged their teams to reach out to our past clients and check in on them.

Our Mission

Responding to needs in our community by providing food and supplies during a time of need. Non judgmental environment amongst friends to help eliminate barriers and support the power of choice.

Our Vision

Enriching lives with nourishment and friendship.
