This small food pantry is available for anyone struggling to get enough to eat. All community members are welcome to contribute non-perishable food. If you would like to donate, you can drop off your donation in a bag or box, or simply add food to our shelves.

Sponsor a Restock!

If you or your office/department would like to sponsor a restocking of the pantry shelf, we invite you to fill out the sign-up form. Sponsorship may include food collection, monetary donations, a combination --or another idea you may have!
