FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Why register?

Feast of Justice requires registration of all guests who shop in our Community Choice Cupboard food program. Fully registered guests are able to schedule their monthly food appointment with us.

We use the information we get from registrations to see who and how many people we are serving, in order to determine how much food we can give in our Community Choice Cupboard. We also use registrations to help connect our guests to specific resources.

What if I'm not good at using the computer, or don't have an email?

If you submit an online application (optional but highly recommended), it will be faster for us to complete your registration on-site. You do not need to submit our online application to get food with us, but your registration process will take longer when you come on-site.

If you do not have an email address, contact us via:

text: 215-278-6347 to make a registration appointment, or
call: leave us a voicemail message 215-268-3510 ext. 4 to make a registration appointment (when calling, leave one voicemail message with your name. We will respond to your call), or

visit us during our registration hours listed above.

What is a temporary registration?

Due to volunteer and capacity constraints, we may decide to provide quick, temporary registration to first-time guests during certain food distributions, instead of our typical full registration process. Temporary registration guests get a red card, and are able to come to our walk-up times for food 1 time each month.

Temporary card guests are able to complete registration at another time when we have capacity. We recommend you schedule an appointment by contacting us (see contact information below).

A full registration is a lengthier process that requires more information, provides a white FOJ ID card with your assigned barcode, and will allow you to schedule food appointments for your 1 visit per month.

I completed the online application,

why haven't I gotten a response?

Due to a record high demand for our food program in fall 2025, there is a backlog in our registration process. Our volunteer team will do our best to get back you as soon as possible. It may take several weeks to process your registration. Oftentimes, we may not have your correct email or the email response is in your SPAM folder. To check on the status of your application, contact us (see contact information below).

If you need food immediately, you may come during registration hours (listed above), one time each month. Let our volunteers know you completed an online registration. Please bring your Photo ID (if possible) and bags for your food.

Please note: upon arriving without an appointment, you may have to wait for a long period of time as we serve guests with appointments. We will assist walk-up guests on a first-come, first-served basis. If we reach capacity for how many people we can serve and how much food we have, we may need to turn people away.

Can I get registered for both Feast of Justice locations?

You can get registered at either our 3101 Tyson Ave or 6434 Castor Ave location, based on your preference. Once you are registered at one of our 2 locations, you do not need to register again for the other location. You are free to visit either location, but you can only get food from one of our locations each month. For more about our 2 locations, see below.

Can another person pick up food with my FOJ ID Card?

If you are picking up food and you are not the person whose name is on the FOJ ID card, you must either be a listed family member, or a named "Proxy" on the cardholder's account. If you are not listed, the cardholder should call us or ask a volunteer to add you to their account in the computer.

How long can I use my FOJ ID Card?

Guests are expected to re-register (re-confirm address and household members) every 2 years. If you have not confirmed your household information and you registered over 2 years ago, you might need to re-register. If you are unable to make appointments, you might need to re-register. To schedule a time to re-register, contact us (see contact information below).
