📢🚨 6/30/26
We’re asking everyone to please hold off on donations for the next day or two.

Unfortunately, an army of these big ole birdies have discovered the pantry and made quite a mess. This happened once before in the early stages of the pantry a few years ago, and we were able to get them to leave with the use of plastic storage bins. However those bins were taken home by others with donations along the way.

If anyone happens to have any 15-20 qt (think tall enough to house a cereal box but not the giant kind you store clothes in for winter) clear storage bins they no longer need, we’d greatly appreciate it.

Thank you all for your continued support, patience, and generosity. We’ll post an update as soon as the pantry is cleaned up, reorganized, and ready to receive donations again. ❤️

6/15/25 Today the pantry was completely empty. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, it is now fully restocked!

A huge thank you to everyone who purchased items from our Amazon wish list, and a very special thank you to Mr. Kevin for always making sure we have a back stock and plenty to share. Your kindness makes a real difference for local families.

As we head into summer, we typically see our busiest season of the year. With children home from school, the need for easy meals, snacks, and grab-and-go items increases significantly. To help meet those needs, we’ve updated our Amazon wish list by removing some items and adding more kid-friendly, easy-to-prepare options for the summer months.

We also want to remind families that if you have children enrolled in CCPS, you can enroll in the Summer Meal Box Program. If you haven’t already signed up, we encourage you to look into it as an additional resource to help keep kids fed while school is out! I’ll attach the flyer for that resource in the comments.

As always: Take what you need, Leave what you can, Share our posts to help spread the word
