Last week, Amazing Grace Food Pantry served 131 Families. A total of 562 people have food on the table thanks to all whom support this little pantry.
On Tuesday, a neighbor stopped in with a canned food drive her 2 young kids did in their neighborhood. The kids, 8 and 6 years old, pulled their wagon door to door last week collecting from each house. They were thrilled to donate to those in need. Amazing job, kids… we and our clients thank you!
Wednesday and Saturday: Two different donations arrived of size 4 and 5 diapers and some adult diapers. These types of items are always in short supply.
If you’d like to help fill the needs, here’s a few things to supply as you find them on sale:
Soups, ketchup, canned beans, canned veggies, dish soap, laundry soap, tooth paste, paper towels and toilet paper
New Building Update: The new building is a HOT BOX until the power is hooked up and the air conditioners are installed. ANY contribution toward this endeavor is appreciated. Thank you to all the dedicated volunteers who are generously donating their time, skill and labor to bring this project to life… and to all those donating to help make this possible.
Meet Dean. He has a family of 6.
I’m thankful for the help Amazing Grace Food Pantry has to offer. Our family wouldn’t be able to pay the electric bill without their help. My kids love coming, too. Everyone is friendly and nice. My daughter and I started volunteering at the pantry, too. It’s great to be able to help alongside other Amazing Grace Pantry volunteers. Everyone has such a heart to help others.
Take the time to read some of the testimonials from clients and volunteers on our website. Volunteer or donate this year. It will bless you!
Please share this and our other posts on your Facebook timeline, tweet it out on Twitter or forward via email. Many people looking to help or looking for help don't even know that ours and other pantries exist. Let others know there's help for them out there!
