LOVE PANTRY 279❤️❤️❤️
Are you guys open on Thursday
Thank you so very much! Looking Good for Halloween 🎃🤡💐
In these scary times, I wanted to remind everyone of what Mr Rogers said, and also tell you a positive pantry story!
On Tuesday we have Senior Citizen and Disabled day from 1:30 - 4 every week. We have one elderly lady who struggles to walk and see. She has been coming every week for a while now, as we are the one pantry that tends to have the special dietary items she must eat. Recently, she has been coming with a very nice slightly older man, who patiently lets her hold onto his arm as he takes her around the shopping area telling her every single items we have on the shelves and getting what she wants. I was saying Hi to her last week and she introduced my to him, he's her Uber Driver! Her cataracts have gotten to bad for her to see, so no more driving. She can't afford to tip much, if at all, but he comes every week and does this for her. We see everyday horrid stories of Uber and it's drivers, but there are good ones too, like this gentleman. The helpers are there, you just have to look for them. Be a helper.

Christmas Programs! WAIT, WAIT, not Elf yet........this is just info of others. I have been receiving a crazy amount of calls asking about when ELF Dispatch opens up. While I assure you that the Head ELF is working hard preparing, we MUST get thru Thanksgiving first!! In the mean time, there are 2 programs open for sign up NOW, but these are NOT ours, I do NOT have the answers. Salvation Army applications is OPEN for sign up at SAangeltree.org and Owen County Alliance has a program . Salvation army will only serve children in the county they are located in and Owen County serves Owen County. As a reminder, you can NOT sign up for 2 programs, them or us, not both! Yes I check! Their programs are pretty much a guarantee your child will get something, our is a strong possibility. Although we've gotten really good at getting matches and our Santa's are AMAZING, there is always the possibility we won't find a match. Feel free to Share!
Oh and ELF Dispatch sign up is not until Dec 2 in the afternoon.

Cindy, if we plan on signing up for the Angel tree but we also have older kids that don’t qualify could those kids then be signed up under Elf dispatch? For instance I have an 8 yr old, a 13 year old and a 15 year old. I know Salvation Army will only accept kids under 13 so I was hoping to register my oldest thru the pantry as I know it’s also much easier to match families with only one child to shop for

Reminder!! We are open for Clothing and Household items pantry Thurs Oct 10 11-4. We are fully stocked with fall/winter items now, all sizes children and adult! You may come once every 30 days and get a whole cart full, all FREE.
Most of our leftover Summer items were sent down South today to NC and TN to help the Helene Hurricane Victims. We thought they could use them more than we needed to store them until next season. Feel free to SHARE.

Your non food donation bin was so full I had to leave a big box of stuff sitting out in front of it. Hopefully someone can get it soon. Just wanted to let you know
Is the clothing drive every Thursday 11-4?

You are doing great!
I love when you show what’s available I’m greatful for your time and your help
I wish I could come..we only have one car and my husband has to use it for work...
Spooky Season!! It's fun and a little nerve racking. First, costumes! Not only is costume wearing allowed at Pantry, It is ENCOURAGED!! We love fun costumes, we wear them too.
Second, it's nerve racking as donations typically drop off right when we are starting to seriously collect them for the Thanksgiving Kindness Program, and we still need food for our regular day to day operations. ( Calm before the storm?? ) I know there is a lot going on right now, but we also must take care of our own people here. If you can, please consider a food or monetary donation.
Thank you and looking forward to seeing those costumes!! Please SHARE
