Many of you may wonder if we will remain open. The current answer is, yes. In order to keep everyone safe, we will be using protection, sanitizing, social distancing practices and limiting volunteers when providing food boxes to families. We ask you to remain in your cars and someone will sign in for you. If you are walking, please space yourselves at least 6 feet from the next patron. For the time being, we will no longer have a shopping style pantry. We ask you to please be patient as we figure out how to best get food to you. Our hours are posted below. Our supplies on some things are extremely limited, while other things will be in quantity. Please know we are doing the best we can.
