Pantry board of directors thanks community for support

The Pantry Board would like to offer our sincere thanks to all of the community=spirited members of the Toby Tubby M.B. Church and the College Hill Presbyterian Church, who in the month of February served 374 families, for a total of 820 people.

Sincere thanks also to the The First Baptist Church members who served 465 families, for a total of 1,078 people in the month of March.

We offer our many thanks and sincere appreciation to Kroger, Walmart, and Panera Bakery Café for their food donations.

Our many thanks and hugs to our local Girl and Boy Scout troops, who once again this year, held their “Scout Pantry Day.”

As a result, our Pantry was well stocked not only with food, but also with monetary donations. We sincerely appreciate all the volunteers who help our clients every week with their screening and grocery shopping. Many thanks and appreciation to all of our donors for their community support of the Pantry.
