Food Pantry Donation List

FOOD PANTRY FOR THOSE WHO CARRY “HOME” ON THEIR BACKS OR LIVE IN THEIR VEHICLES

The clients we serve are low income and do not usually have a stable place to lay their heads.  They carry our food bags on their bikes, in their back packs (if they have them) or just on their arm.  For this reason, we use very light weight and easy open food.  The heaviest items in our bags are water and electrolyte drinks.  Therefore, we ask you purchase the items from our shopping list to make life easier for those using our food bags.  We thank you and so do they!!!!
