FOOD PANTRY
Greetings from the Pantry!
We have been out in the streets bringing meals each week to homeless people. We have been making hot sandwiches and chili to try and stave off the frigid Temps. People have been very responsive to having something hot. This month we served 250 meals to the homeless and distributed 52 boxes to homed households.
The pantry received donations of hats. gloves and blankets which were distributed to the homeless. We are in need of rice and canned tomatoes if you want to help!
Thanks to all our volunteers who work so hard to make this all happen!
Gratefully,
Sharon Douglas, Program Coordinator
