Fighting Poverty.  ending hunger.  locally.

Badger Prairie Needs Network (BPNN) operates one of the busiest food pantries in Dane County, Wisconsin. Food insecurity is real for too many in our community. Odds are, you may know of someone who needs help from organizations like BPNN, especially in light of high unemployment, low wages or bridging an unexpected expense.
 
While our operations have shifted from in pantry shopping to curbside pickup, our values are unwavering. If you are hungry, we will help. Our service area includes all of Dane County and guests may visit BPNN twice monthly.

We are 100% volunteer - all funds raised go toward our mission and keeping the lights on. ​ Learn more about us in our annual report.
