Many thanks to our regular donators to the food pantry! If we all bought a few items each week we'd never have a shortage. Our shelves are quite full at the moment but that could change very quickly. The following donations are always needed:
-
canned fruit
-
canned vegetables
-
tuna helper
-
tuna
-
soup
-
crackers
-
canned ham
-
macaroni and cheese
-
peanut butter
-
jelly
-
pasta and sauce
Thanks for your ongoing support! Stacey
