Leading the way
to a healthy, hunger-free community.
WELCOME TO
THE COMMUNITY BASKET
We would like to welcome you to The Community Basket located in Dutton, Michigan, founded in December 2018. The Community Basket took over the Dutton food pantry/community services of Dutton when they closed.
Our goal is to eliminate hunger in Dutton and surrounding counties through engagement, collaboration, and leadership. We are here to help you connect you to groceries, meals, pantries, and more.
From this site you can learn about the pantry, find out how to become a volunteer and register online, you can also discover ways you can help support our organization.
