First Refuge Ministries — Food Pantry

First Refuge Ministries offers a client-choice food pantry at 1701 Broadway Street in Denton, Texas. Households select groceries for their needs instead of receiving a fixed box. The pantry serves individuals and families in Denton County who qualify for TEFAP and need food assistance. Eligible clients may receive pantry services once every 30 days; this does not mean a visit is available every calendar month regardless of the previous visit date.

Before your first visit, call 940-484-4384 or email info@firstrm.org to ask about current eligibility, documents, appointment procedures and arrival instructions. These intake details have not been confirmed, so do not assume that medical or dental clinic requirements apply to the pantry. The official pantry page explains its choice-based service and visit frequency.

The provider posts Monday morning, Wednesday afternoon and Thursday evening sessions. The City of Denton lists closing times 15 minutes earlier; neither source explains the difference. Confirm the latest arrival time before traveling and review the attributed schedules in Hours. For other possible support, explore NHREA’s federal assistance information. NHREA does not determine eligibility or arrange food assistance.
