RETURN TO DRIVE-THRU DISTRUBUTION:
Due to the surging cases of Covid-19 in the area, the pantry will be returning to the drive-thru method for our weekly grocery distribution. We hope to return to normal in-pantry shopping soon as we work to keep our volunteers and clients safe and healthy. Please have patience as we aim to distribute as quickly as possible.
Check back regularly for updates.
