This year, as Thanksgiving approaches so quickly, we here at Pantry 279 have been more stressed than normal. Not only has the need continued to explode this year, but many of our donors have been showing up in our lines, as their jobs no longer are able to support them. Not having a normal Thanksgiving dinner with your children and immediate family is very mentally detrimental. While we always hear stories as people express their gratitude, this year there are not only more, but they are so heartbreaking. The phrase, "I'm afraid that I will have to skip Thanksgiving this year, just so we have enough for 2 meals a day." has been heard a lot. 2 MEALS A DAY! Also, "I had to choose this month between rent and food." I also heard. Every Day. Our shelves are looking rough, but with the help of our partners at Hoosier Hills Food Bank and Midwest Food Bank, we have not turned anyone away. We are very thankful for them and our supportive large community!
If you are able to donate financially, please consider it. We will also be rolling out Pantry Life line Program soon,!
