Main St. The pantry is open to residents of Lombard, Villa Park and Oakbrook Terrace. During the COVID-19 pandemic, residents in need of food can pull up outside the pantry, where volunteers then put a box of food—containing non-perishable items, milk, bread and eggs—inside their vehicles. The pantry, a joint effort of First United, Calvary Episcopal Church and First United Methodist Lombard, is open Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, Wednesday evenings and the third Saturday morning of each month.
