PantryBags
We are excited to announce that we are starting a Pantry Bag Program. Our clients receive a hot meal Monday-Friday. Our Weekend Meal program has been very successful and provides shelf stable meals for one meal each day on the weekends. About 60% of our clients receive weekend meals.
Our homebound clients don’t have anyone to provide groceries and don’t have the money to cover the cost of food after living and medical expenses, we want to make sure they have enough to eat. We provide a bag with shelf stable food for our clients that need it.
The bags will contain shelf stable food similar to the Emergency Bags and Weekend Meals.
Donations can be dropped off at our office in Crofton Plaza, Monday – Friday 9 AM – Noon.
