We Provide Food Assistance to Those in Need in Southern New Hampshire
The operations of Shepherd’s Pantry are carried out by a dedicated group of volunteers who, each week, shop for food, pick up regular donations from supermarkets and bakeries, fill the shelves and freezers and then bag the food and distribute it to our clients each Monday morning.
Struggling With Food Insecurity?
We’re here to help.
Shepherd’s Pantry operates every Monday morning as a drive through from the Windham Presbyterian Church parking lot providing food assistance to those in need in Southern New Hampshire. We want to make sure that none of our neighbors goes hungry.

The Turkey Trot = Neighborhood Fun Run!
The Windham Turkey Trot started in 1994 and is now the primary annual Fundraising Event to support the Windham Shepherd’s Pantry.
In 2020, Shepherd’s Pantry was given the opportunity to assume the operation of the Trot so now both the Windham Shepherd’s Pantry and the Windham Turkey Trot are under the same 501(c)(3) umbrella. This means 100% of the funds raised from The Windham Turkey Trot goes to Shepherd’s Pantry to help its clients who experience food insecurity.
Volunteer Spotlight
Carol Murphy
Carol Murphy first learned about Shepherd’s Pantry through her late neighbors and friends, Bob and Mary Ashburn. As longtime Shepherd’s Pantry volunteers, they often shared stories about the pantry and the wonderful people involved. After retiring from a high-tech marketing career she loved for 32 years, Carol felt called to give back and found her home at Shepherd’s Pantry.
She became our beloved “milk and eggs girl”, a role she still fills today with enthusiasm and a smile. Carol loves working alongside the caring volunteers and says the teamwork and dedication of everyone involved keeps her coming back week after week. “We’ve been blessed in life and giving back to others is so important. Find the passion and help give back, because it’s so rewarding.” – Carol Murphy
A member of St. Matthew’s Parish for 25 years, Carol feels deeply connected to the mission of feeding those in need and considers volunteering at Shepherd’s Pantry a true calling. Carol, thank you for your kindness, dedication, and generous spirit. We are so grateful to have you as part of the Shepherd’s Pantry family!
