WEEKLY WISH LIST 

Good Morning!
Huge thanks to EVERYONE shipping and dropping off donations to the pantry!!! We could not do any of this without you. 
Thanks to your efforts, last month we distributed over 3,300 lbs. of food!!! That is roughly 2,753 meals. 
Being that busy, our supply shelves have been consistently low. The GOOD NEWS is the pantry is still getting filled daily by your generous donations. 
Just a reminder that our consistently most needed items are
PROTEINS (tuna, chicken, salmon, nuts)
shelf stable milk
microwave meals (Hormel, chef Boyardee, instant Mac and cheese)
peanut butter
pasta & sauce
canned vegetables
snacks (popcorn, crackers, granola bars)
coffee & tea

WE ARE ESPECIALLY IN NEED OF PROTEINS THIS WEEK. 

We will also gladly accept fresh produce, including from your gardens. 
Hygiene products like tooth brushes, tooth paste, soap, pads/tampons, and shampoo are also always needed and deeply appreciated.
You can drop off items in person by either placing them directly into the Pantry or into the black donation bin by our garage door. You can also order through our Amazon Wishlist https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/31DQMG6QQ65HX.... OR you can have items shipped or delivered to 58 Skokorat St.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!
