Max Block Food Pantry

Verified · October 23, 2026

The Max Block Food Pantry gives emergency groceries to people going through difficult times — large amounts of nutritious, non-perishable food, plus personal hygiene items such as toothpaste and toothbrushes, sanitary items, soap and deodorant. It is open to the whole Northeast Florida community, and walk-ins are welcome during pantry hours. JFCS also runs satellite food pantries in public schools and community centers in Duval County. (JFCS also runs a second Max Block pantry in Baker County — outside Duval, so it is not a row here.)
